BJP changes partner

December 14, 2020: The Times of India

BJP decided to dump its alliance partner Bodo Peoples’ Front (BPF) to join hands with the United Peoples’ Party Liberal (UPPL) and the Gana Suraksha Party to form the next Bodoland Territorial Council after the just concluded polls threw a hung House, Assam chief minister Sarbananda Sonowal said.

The 40-member new council will be headed by UPPL chief Promode Bodo, Sonowal said after a meeting with the representatives of all the three parties. The 21-newly elected BTC members belonging to the BJP, UPPL and the GSP went to the Raj Bhawan to submit their claim to form the council to governor Jagadish Mukhi. Regarding the tie-up with BPF, Sarma said it was made for five years from 2016 and it will continue till the next assembly elections are held. Assam assembly polls are slated to be held in early 2021. AGENCIES
