Guwahati, Oct 6: The conglomerate of opposition parties in Assam, including the Congress, on Saturday rechristened itself as ‘Asom Sonmilito Morcha’ or ASOM, as the alliance prepared new strategies to take on the BJP-led ruling dispensation.
The platform of the opposition parties was previously known as United Opposition Forum, Assam.
Talking to reporters, secretary of UOFA and Assam Jatiya Parishad(AJP) president Lurinjyoti Gogoi said, “Prior to the last Lok Sabha elections, the opposition parties had united and formed the ‘Birodi Aikya Mancha, Asom’. Starting with 10-11 members, our strength has now grown to 16 parties.”
He said the members are devising strategies and working with a new vigour in preparation for the 2026 assembly elections.
“After discussion with the parties, it has been unanimously resolved to rename the conglomerate as Asom Sonmilito Morcha or ASOM ‘mitrojut’ (alliance),” Gogoi stated.
