With this declaration, Raijor Dal has formally entered the electoral fray. The announcement comes amid heightened tensions within the opposition camp, particularly over seat-sharing negotiations with the Congress.
The inclusion of key constituencies such as East Goalpara, Dhing, Margherita, and Mariani, central to the ongoing alliance negotiations, signals that the party is ready to move forward with its electoral strategy, even without a finalized agreement.
