Good to see continuity in Assam. But I hope the government also focuses on flood management and ethnic harmony. These are long-standing issues that need more than just promises. Let's see how they perform this time.

Third consecutive term for NDA is huge. Himanta is a shrewd politician who knows Assam inside out. The way he handled the pandemic and border issues shows he means business. Hope the opposition also plays constructive role.

I'm from Assam and I must say, Himanta's energy is unmatched. But I wish he would be more inclusive of all communities. Development should benefit every Assamese, not just a section. Let's hope for the best. 🤞

PM Modi's blessings are a big plus. Himanta has done well in previous terms—more industries, better roads, and improved healthcare. I believe he can make Assam a top state. Just need to control inflation and unemployment. All the best!

Himanta is a master administrator. Assam has seen stability under NDA. But I'm a bit skeptical about the coal and mining issues—hope they don't compromise environment for growth. Otherwise, good news for the state.
