Assam CM Oath Taking Ceremony Date & Time
The new BJP-led government in Assam will officially take oath on May 12 following the party’s strong performance in the state assembly elections. The swearing-in ceremony is scheduled to begin at 11 am and will mark the BJP’s third consecutive term in the state.
State BJP leaders said preparations for the major political event are already underway, with thousands of party workers and supporters expected to attend the ceremony.
Assam CM Oath Taking Ceremony Venue
The oath-taking ceremony will take place at Khanapara in Guwahati, which is expected to witness heavy security arrangements and large public participation.
According to BJP leaders, PM Narendra Modi, Union Home Minister Amit Shah, several Union ministers, and chief ministers from NDA-ruled states are likely to attend the event. Over 100,000 people are expected to gather at the venue for the swearing-in ceremony.
Who Will Be the New CM of Assam?
Himanta Biswa Sarma is widely expected to continue as the Chief Minister of Assam after the BJP-led NDA secured a massive victory in the 2026 Assembly elections. Multiple reports suggest the BJP leadership is set to back Sarma for another term following the alliance’s dominant performance.
The NDA won 102 seats in the 126-member Assam Assembly, with the BJP alone crossing the majority mark by winning 82 seats. The strong mandate has further strengthened Sarma’s position within the party and the Northeast political landscape.
Although there was some speculation about possible leadership changes after the elections, senior BJP leaders have indicated that Himanta Biswa Sarma is likely to take oath again on May 12 in Guwahati.

PM Narendra Modi will attend the oath-taking ceremony as the chief guest. Union Home Minister Amit Shah and several senior NDA leaders are also expected to be present.
State BJP leaders confirmed that chief ministers and deputy chief ministers from multiple NDA-ruled states will join the event. Senior Union ministers, party officials, and prominent personalities from Assam are also likely to attend the ceremony.
According to Dilip Saikia, over 100,000 people may gather for the swearing-in event, making it one of the biggest political ceremonies in the state this year.
BJP Secures Third Consecutive Victory in Assam
The BJP-led National Democratic Alliance registered another dominant performance in the Assam Assembly elections. The BJP alone crossed the majority mark by winning 82 out of 126 assembly seats.
Its allies, Asom Gana Parishad and Bodoland Peoples Front, secured 10 seats each, taking the NDA tally to 102 seats overall.
Meanwhile, the Indian National Congress won 19 seats while its ally, Raijor Dal, secured two seats. The All India United Democratic Front and All India Trinamool Congress won two and one seats respectively.
Massive Preparations Underway in Guwahati
BJP leaders said preparations for the swearing-in ceremony are being carried out on a large scale. Security arrangements, crowd management, and stage preparations have already started in Guwahati ahead of the high-profile event.
“Following our historic win, BJP workers and members of the public are very excited to be part of this event, for which we are carrying out preparations in all earnest,” said Saikia.
Officials also confirmed that Prime Minister Modi will arrive at Lokapriya Gopinath Bordoloi International Airport before heading directly to the venue in Khanapara.
What the BJP Said About the New Government’s Agenda?
The BJP leadership said the new government will continue focusing on infrastructure, development, and welfare projects started during the previous terms.
