Nandita Garlosa Joins Congress After BJP Denies Ticket Ahead of Assam Polls

• Former minister and BJP leader Nandita Garlosa joined the Congress on Sunday night.
• Garlosa, the sitting MLA from Haflong, switched parties after BJP denied her a ticket, fielding Rupali Langthasa instead.
• Her move comes just a day before the deadline for filing nominations for the Assam Assembly Elections 2026.
• Congress is considering fielding Garlosa from Haflong (ST) constituency due to her influence, potentially replacing Nirmal Langthasa.
• Garlosa's departure is seen as a setback for BJP in Dima Hasao, intensifying political activity in the region.
