SIlchar: Former Assam u.s. Congress chair Bhupen Kumar Borah on dominicus officially united the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), ending his 32-year-long association with the Congress ahead of the upcoming Assembly elections.He joined the BJP at the party’s state headquarters in Guwahati in the presence of Assam BJP president Dilip Saikia and other senior leaders. The development came days after Borah resigned from the Congress, citing differences with the senior leadership.Soon after joining the BJP, Borah said he had devoted a large part of his political life to the Congress but felt ignored when he faced discrimination within the party.“I reached out to leaders like Rahul Gandhi, but nobody bothered to listen to me or address issues related to the party’s ideology,” he said, adding that he had not initially left the Congress with the intention of joining the BJP.Borah claimed that more Congress leaders may switch to the BJP ahead of the Assembly polls. “More than 700 leaders in Congress have sought tickets for the Assembly elections. After the party declares its list of candidates, I will give the BJP a list of Congress leaders who are willing to switch,” he added.Chief minister Himanta Biswa Sarma on Sunday said, “I welcome him as a BJP member and wish him a successful future. I would suggest that he forget the bitter memories of Congress. He will be a strong support for us.”Leader of Opposition in the Assam Assembly, Debabrata Saikia, said Borah had been given adequate opportunities in the Congress and if he still felt dissatisfied, he was free to seek them in the BJP.“He was with the Congress for 32 years and was the president of the APCC. We also saw how he was given a smaller chair during the meeting with Union home minister Amit Shah. I wish him a good future,” Saikia said.
