Pradyut Bordoloi, a former Congress MP, has successfully won the Dispur constituency in Assam as a Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) candidate, achieving 1,03,337 votes and defeating Congress' Mira Borthakur Goswami, who garnered 53,670 votes. Bordoloi's transition to the BJP occurred in mid-March, just before the assembly elections held on April 9. This election marks a significant shift, as Bordoloi had been a member of the Congress party for over fifty years. In related developments, Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma is leading in the Jalukbari constituency with a substantial margin of over 80,000 votes against his closest competitor, Bidisha Neog from Congress. Overall, the BJP has reported victories in 22 constituencies, while the All India United Democratic Front (AIUDF) has secured one win in Dalgaon. Additionally, Congress state chief Gaurav Gogoi lost his seat in Jorhat to BJP's Hitendranath Goswami, who won by a margin of 23,182 votes.
