Nagaon, Assam, January 24, 2026: In a significant political development ahead of the 2026 Assam Assembly elections, Badarudduza Chowdhury, former District President of AIUDF in Nagaon, has expressed his intent to seek the party's nomination for the 55-Dhing Assembly constituency. Hailing from Bher Bheri village in Nagaon district, Chowdhury's potential candidacy has sparked widespread enthusiasm, with voters from all corners demanding his ticket as the MLA candidate.
Chowdhury, a longtime party loyalist known for his grassroots connect and advocacy on local issues like flood management, agriculture, and minority welfare, addressed supporters at a recent gathering in Dhing. "The people's voice is clear they want a dedicated leader who understands their struggles. I am ready to contest if the party leadership blesses me with the opportunity," he stated, emphasizing his commitment to AIUDF's core agenda.
The surge in support comes as Dhing, a politically charged seat with a history of competitive elections, braces for another high-stakes battle. Local AIUDF units report overwhelming endorsements from rural pockets, including Bher Bheri and surrounding areas, where Chowdhury's developmental initiatives have earned him loyalty. Party insiders hint that high command deliberations could favor him, given the constituency's demographic dynamics favoring AIUDF.
As the election buzz intensifies, Chowdhury's bid underscores the party's strategy to field strong local faces. Voters remain hopeful that his nomination will strengthen AIUDF's prospects in Nagaon.
