Himanta Biswa Sarma is poised to be sworn in for a second term as Assam's chief minister on Tuesday, marking another milestone for the BJP-led NDA in the state. The ceremony in Khanapara will be a showcase of strength, attended by high-profile leaders including Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

This swearing-in marks the NDA's third consecutive term in Assam, following a sweeping victory where the alliance, including the BJP, Asom Gana Parishad, and Bodoland People's Front, won a significant majority. The event is a testament to the continuing influence and success of the BJP in Assam's political landscape.

Sarma, the first non-Congress leader to secure two consecutive terms, has emphasized the administration's focus on land rights and developmental goals. The ceremony will not only be a display of political might but also a statement of intent for the future governance of Assam.
