Disappointed dissident ministers and MLAs are trying to reach out to a section AGP, BPF and AIUDF legislators to form an alternative government in Dispur if Sonia Gandhi fails to dislodge Tarun Gogoi as chief minister this week.
Dissident leaders told Assam Times that a section of AGP top leaders is believed to have given positive response to the development. A positive response would give the dissident camp 9 legislators.
AIUDF sources further confirmed receipt of the request for support to Dr Sarma with 18 MLAs. Same efforts are on to take the BPF members on board. But the Gogoi camp has straightly dismissed the possibility saying that it is a figment of imagination.
