The move comes ahead of the Assam Assembly Elections 2021.
However, the All Assam Students' Union (AASU) has refuted such claims as an impression to indicate erosion from AASU. Speaking on the condition of anonymity, a Central Committee member told G Plus, "No one from the top-level has joined the party."
