The Bodoland Territorial Council (BTC) elections delivered a notable blow to Assam's ruling BJP, as the Bodoland People's Front (BPF) clinched victory by winning 28 of the 40 seats. The BJP, who had seen better days in 2020 under former CM Sarbananda Sonowal, lagged behind with only five seats this time. The United People's Party Liberal (UPPL), a BJP ally, also suffered, capturing a mere seven seats.

Assam Congress president Gaurav Gogoi criticized the ruling party, attributing the electoral result to a rejection of BJP's governance at the state and national level. He emphasized that the leadership under Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma had seen a decline in the party's popularity, compared to the achievements during Sonowal's tenure.
