."You will find women at public meetings and youth at public rallies. So, there is great enthusiasm among women and youth. This election is being fought by Gen Z and women, and we are going to see a great result. I campaigned on two seats today in Assam - Dhakuakhana and Lakhmipur. In the last election, we were tense until the counting was complete for the last polling station. But these two seats have now turned A+. With the work done by us and the big works done for Assam by PM Modi, people are going to vote for BJP-AGP-BPF alliance one sided," said the Assam chief minister.

As a woman from Guwahati, I appreciate the focus on women voters. Many schemes like Orunodoi have directly helped my family. But I hope the talk on infiltration is backed by concrete, humane policy, not just rhetoric during elections.

"Seats turned A+" sounds like corporate jargon. We need to hear more about job creation for the youth he's talking about. Rallies are fine, but what about the unemployment numbers? That's the real issue for Gen Z.

Interesting to follow state elections in India. The single-phase polling on April 9th seems efficient. Hope the process is peaceful and every vote counts. The enthusiasm described is a positive sign for any democracy.

Credit to PM Modi is fine, but a CM must own his state's performance. Assam has specific challenges - floods, erosion, tea garden workers' issues. The campaign should focus on those, not just heavy topics being set aside. A balanced approach is needed.

The confidence is high, which is good. But in a democracy, a strong opposition is healthy. Hope Congress puts up a constructive fight on issues. Let the best vision for Assam's future win! 🙏
