2014 Indian general election in Assam
The 2014 Indian general election in Assam was a significant political event held as part of the nationwide elections to the Lok Sabha, the lower house of India's Parliament. Conducted in two phases on April 7 and April 12, 2014, Assam's electoral landscape was marked by a contest primarily between the Indian National Congress, led by Chief Minister Tarun Gogoi, and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), which aimed to capitalize on regional sentiments and anti-incumbency factors. The elections were conducted amidst heightened security concerns due to violence and insurgency in certain areas. The BJP's strong campaign efforts and alliance with regional parties culminated in a notable electoral performance, reshaping Assam's political dynamics and signaling a shift in voter sentiment at the state level.
