Congress polarised Assam's elections by aligning with AIUDF: Himanta Sarma

Ahead of Assam assembly elections, state Health Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma on March 08 said by doing an alliance with communal party Congress has polarised the election in the state.

He said, "By forging alliance with communal party Congress has polarised the election.

Had Congress contested separately, polls would have been fought on development issues.

But by aligning with AIUDF, Congress has made this poll a conflict of civilizations." Assam assembly elections will be held in three phases on March 27, April 1 and April 6.
