New Delhi: On March 6, Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader from poll-bound Assam, Himanta Biswa Sarma, uploaded a music video on his Twitter handle. The song centred the partyâs election campaign around Sarma.
The poll song in Assamese says, â
Aahise aahise Himanta aahise aaxa re botora loi (Here comes Himanta bringing the news of hope).”

While prodding the
kokaideu (the elder brothers) to come out of their homes to join Sarma in his campaign to help return the BJP to power in the northeastern state, the song also makes use of a term used for him by his critics in the state â
