ASsam Chief government minister Himanta Biswa Sarma on midweek stated that Bhupen Bora's surrender from the united states congress was a " detachment" of the party from Hindu society, labelling the former Congress leader as the last recognised Hindu leader within the state's Congress party.While addressing the media, the Assam Chief Minister said, "Bhupen Bora was the last recognised Hindu leader of the Congress. Apart from him, if you ask about Debabrata Saikia, he is the son of Hiteshwar Saikia; Gaurav Gogoi is the son of Tarun Gogoi; Pradyut Bordoloi himself wins from a minority seat. Bhupen Bora was the last legitimate Hindu face of the Congress. His resignation is, in a way, like the Congress separating itself from Hindu society."Sarma's comments come amid an announcement that the former Assam Congress chief is set to join the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on February 22. This major shift comes just one day after Borah tendered his resignation from Congress, marking a pivotal development in the buildup to the state Assembly elections.Borah had tendered his resignation on February 16, expressing dissatisfaction over the party's internal decision-making, particularly regarding participation in the Majuli yatra.Addressing a press conference alongside Borah, Sarma said that BJP Assam President Dilip Saikia will work out the details of the joining, which has been approved by the party's National President Nitin Nabin.Also Read | Himanta says Sonia Gandhi offered him Assam CM post in 2014, blames Rahul Gandhi for denial"Bhupen Borah will join the BJP on 22nd February. Dilip Saikia will work out the details. Along with him, a good number of Congress leaders will join the BJP in Guwahati and North Lakhimpur. He is the last recognised Hindu leader in Congress. Our National President Nitin Nabin has already approved his joining and welcomes him," he said."Bhupen Borah will be accorded all due respect and dignity. Joining the BJP will be like a homecoming for him because it is a party with many people like him, whose fathers did not occupy any high offices," he added.Showing BJP's strength, Assam CM Sarma said, "Bhupen Borah's joining will completely create an image, which is a reality too, that Congress is no longer a party of mainstream Assamese people."
