Assam Jatiya Parishad (AJP) leader and candidate Kunki Chowdhury appeared before Panbazar Police Station in Guwahati regarding an alleged violation of the Model Code of Conduct during the ongoing Assembly elections in Assam. She was questioned briefly by the police in connection with the allegations before being allowed to leave. The case against Chowdhury was filed following complaints of breaching election guidelines, although detailed specifics of the alleged violation have not been disclosed.
The Election Commission authorities are intensifying their scrutiny to ensure strict enforcement of the Model Code of Conduct across Assam during the election period. In recent days, several candidates and political workers have faced scrutiny for alleged violations. Kunki Chowdhury, a candidate of the AJP, a regional political party born out of the anti-Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) movement, has positioned the party as a representative of indigenous identity and regional aspirations in Assam’s political arena.
Chowdhury, known for her involvement in grassroots politics and local community issues, is part of AJP’s strategy to enhance its presence by fielding leaders associated with regional and youth-driven movements. Previously, she was summoned by the police in connection with the case after the alleged Model Code of Conduct violation was noted. The investigation into the matter is ongoing, and any further action will be based on the inquiry’s findings. Authorities have emphasized their commitment to ensuring a fair electoral process where all candidates strictly adhere to election norms.
