The Birsing-Jarua constituency in Dhubri district, Assam, is gearing up for its inaugural election following its formation during the 2023 delimitation exercise. Senior Congress leader Wazed Ali Choudhury, aged 63, is contesting for the seat, leveraging his extensive electoral background, having won multiple elections from the Salmara South constituency since 1996. He will face a competitive race against Ali Akbar Miah from the All India United Democratic Front (AIUDF), Madhabi Das from the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), and Akbar Ali Mondal from the National Road Map Party of India. The contest is particularly significant as Congress and AIUDF, former allies, are now rivals. In the 2024 Lok Sabha elections, Congress had a notable lead in the area, indicating potential support for Choudhury. However, the constituency's historical allegiance to AIUDF poses a challenge, as it was previously a stronghold for the party. Choudhury's political experience and local connections will be crucial in this multi-cornered contest, especially given his past controversies involving alleged misuse of government funds.
