There will be straight fight between BJP, BPF: Himanta

By STAFF REPORTER

GUWAHATI, Nov 19 - Senior BJP leader Himanta Biswa Sarma on Thursday said there will be a straight fight between the saffron party and in its former ally BPF in as many as 27 constituencies in the ensuing BTC elections. �In the remaining 13 constituencies, the fight will be between BPF and UPPL,� Sarma told media persons, adding, �BJP will contest on its own in the BTC elections.�

Further, taking a dig at the Congress party, the North East Democratic Alliance (NEDA) chief alleged that the Congress is playing a dangerous game right from Kashmir to Assam. �In Assam, Congress is supporting the communal agenda of the AIUDF chief Badaruddin � be it about Miyan flag, Miyan culture or Pakistan Zindabad slogans,� Sarma told media persons today.

�The Pradesh Congress is openly endorsing the statements of AIUDF and Congress leaders whose tone and tenor is completely communal,� he added.

Equally, in the context of Kashmir, the Congress is playing into the hands of the separatists by allying with Gupkar �gang�.
