Opposition Alliance
A Congress-led opposition alliance with Raijor Dal and Assam Jatiya Parishad was sealed last week, ahead of Assam's assembly elections. In Upper Assam's key Ahom belt, Gaurav Gogoi, Akhil Gogoi, and Lurinjyoti Gogoi are contesting nearby seats. After vote splits hurt in 2021, the pact aims to consolidate support against BJP.

The opposition alliance led by Rigathi Gachagua and Kalonzo Musyoka is seeking Siaya Governor James Orengo as a running mate to attract support from the Luo Nyanza region. Internal sources say Orengo is eyed for his political experience and firm stance against ODM's ties with the government. However, this move could be risky if Nyanza remains aligned with President William Ruto.
