Lok Sabha Elections 2024: The northeastern states individually may not have many seats between them, but the entire region sends 25 members to the Lok Sabha. Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma, who is also the convener of the BJP-led North-East Democratic Alliance (NEDA), is confident of routing the Congress from the region and the saffron party winning 22 seats on its own. NEDA is considered to be a regional extension of the BJP-led National Democratic Alliance in the Northeast.
