MLAs of the Opposition parties in the 126-member Assam Assembly have been trading charges after the BJP and its ally, the United People’s Party Liberal (UPPL), bagged two Rajya Sabha seats.
The election was held on March 31.
The BJP and the UPPL had fielded actor-politician Pabitra Margherita and Rwngwra Narzary respectively. Mr. Margherita’s win was a certainty, as the BJP and its allies, the Asom Gana Parishad and the Bodoland People’s Front (BPF), had 82 votes.
