Nagaon: Senior Congress leader and Nagaon Lok Sabha MP Pradyut Bordoloi has found himself at the centre of claims of a coordinated political conspiracy. A section within rival political circles is said to be attempting to tarnish his public and political image 9Pradyut Bordoloi Misinformation Campaign). With the recent meeting of the Congress high command in Delhi, the controversy surrounding the Nagaon MP has further intensified the political atmosphere in the region.
The Congress high command meeting in Delhi, scheduled for the finalisation of strategies and the appointment of candidates for the 2026 Assembly elections, reportedly saw Bordoloi walk out. Rumours have also suggested that the MP is likely to switch his political allegiance to the BJP. However, these allegations have been firmly denied by Bordoloi. He confirmed that he has had no disputes with party elders and described the speculation as completely unfounded.
Who Is Behind the Smear Campaign?
In political circles, speculation suggests that the BJP’s IT cell may be executing a systematic disinformation campaign against the MP. Pradyut Bordoloi has also addressed the issue, stating that he believes a faction within the BJP views him as a growing political threat and is attempting to tarnish his reputation through misinformation. The alleged aim, according to him, is to discourage Congress supporters and workers ahead of the elections and to create disarray within the party.
What Is the Reason Behind Targeting Pradyut Bordoloi?
Political analysts have begun explaining why Bordoloi may have become a target. It is suggested that his strong public connect, not only in central Assam but also in upper Assam, has unsettled his political opponents. Bordoloi, who has been elected twice as MP from the Nagaon Lok Sabha constituency, is said to be facing a coordinated misinformation campaign intended to weaken his political standing. However, he has maintained that the controversy regarding the Delhi meeting is “completely false” and has urged the people of the state not to be misled by such rumours.
