During a recent BJP rally, Assam's Chief Minister, Himanta Biswa Sarma, and the public shared a joyful moment dancing in the rain.
The crowd and the Chief Minister danced to the tune of the BJP's Assam theme song, "Akou ebar Modi sarkar," which means "Modi government once again." Later, on social media platform X, the Chief Minister expressed his humility over the massive support for Prime Minister Narendra Modi in Kokrajhar. https://x.com/himantabiswa/status/1784546251838718149 "Thanks, Kokrajhar Lok Sabha.
