Congress effort to unite all opposition parties against ruling BJP in Assam failed as newly floated Assam Jatiya Parishad (AJP) and Akhil Gogoi-led Raijor Dal announced their lists of candidates for the first two phases of polling on March 27 and April 1.
The AJP, led by the former general secretary of All Assam Students Union Lurinjyoti Gogoi, announced their first list of 18 candidates on Friday evening, hours after BJP s list was made public.
Raijor Dal, which was also formed out of the anti-CAA agitation, released names of 18 candidates, 12 for the first phase and six for the second phase.
