Sewli Mohilary, the wife of Bodoland People's Front (BPF) chief Hagrama Mohilary, is positioning herself for a ministerial role in the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) government in Assam, which will be sworn in on May 12, 2023. As a first-time MLA representing Kokrajhar, she believes that holding a ministerial position would enable her to contribute more effectively to the community. A senior BJP leader indicated that the BPF is likely to secure one ministerial berth in the new cabinet, alongside the Asom Gana Parishad (AGP), which is also expected to receive one. The BJP has significantly increased its representation in the Assam Assembly, winning 82 out of 126 seats, while the NDA coalition secured a total of 102 seats. This marks a notable increase from the previous election cycle, where the BJP held 60 seats. Mohilary's candidacy comes after the BPF chose her over former minister Pramila Rani Brahma, reflecting a strategic shift in the party's approach to representation.
