Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma on April 18, said that he has a good rapport with Congress MLAs of Assam and exuded confidence that the leaders will vote for BJP if another round of Rajya Sabha elections are held. “It's a fact that almost all Congress leaders of Assam are close to me, including Ripun Bora. I have spent a good 22 years of my life in Congress. There are many who want to join BJP and walk with us but you have to create space for them also.” <br /><br />He said, “It's a fact that 9-10 Congress MLAs have voted for us in the Rajya Sabha. If tomorrow, there's another Rajya Sabha election, they will still vote for us.”
