Raw deal for dissident MLAs

A section of dissident Congress MLAs have come back to Guwahati on Sunday a day after they met BJP leadership. But uncertainty still persists. Sources told Assam Times that neither the central leadership and nor the state leadership have confirmed them a date to join the party.

“The state leadership refused to deal with their demands and suggested them to take up the issue with the central leadership. But the solution eluded when they talked to BJP president Amit Shah. Much to a major disappointment Shah asked them to contact the state leadership for any confirmation,” said a senior BJP leaders in Guwahati.

Notably, at the initiative of Dr Himanta Biswa Sarma they met Amit Shah on Saturday morning where they apprised him of their interest to join the party.
