Voting is currently taking place in four Lok Sabha seats in Assam.
The city of Guwahati in Assam was bustling with activity as people headed to the polls to cast their votes for the four Lok Sabha seats. It was a peaceful day of voting in the constituencies of Guwahati, Barpeta, Dhubri, and Kokrajhar. A total of 47 candidates were competing for these four seats, and interestingly, 15 of them were declared as 'crorepatis' or millionaires. The richest among them was Badruddin Ajmal, the leader of AIUDF, who was contesting from the Dhubri seat.

Upon examining the affidavits submitted by the candidates, it was revealed that the 'crorepati' candidates included four independents, two from AGP, two from Congress, and one each from BJP, AIUDF, Bodo Peoples' Front, United Peoples' Party, Liberal, Trinamool Congress, CPI, and Ekam Sanatn Bharat. It was quite a diverse list with candidates from different political parties making it to the coveted 'crorepati' club.

Interestingly, the candidate with the lowest assets among the 'crorepatis' was Triptina Rabha, an independent candidate contesting from the Kokrajhar constituency. Her movable assets were worth only Rs 25,521, making her the least financially influential candidate among the four Lok Sabha seats.

Out of the 15 'crorepati' candidates, two were women - Mira Borthakur Goswami from Congress and Bijuli Kalita Medhi from BJP. Both of them were competing for the Guwahati constituency, adding a touch of diversity to the otherwise male-dominated list of 'crorepati' candidates.

However, the one candidate who stood out from the rest was Badruddin Ajmal. He was seeking re-election from Dhubri for the fourth time and had amassed a total of Rs 155 crore in assets. A staggering amount, with Rs 28.89 crore in movable assets and Rs 126.17 crore in immovable assets. It was no surprise that he was considered the richest candidate among the four Lok Sabha seats.

As the voting came to an end, the people of Assam eagerly waited for the results to see who would emerge victorious in the race for the four Lok Sabha seats. It was indeed an interesting mix of candidates with varying backgrounds and financial standings, making it a closely watched election.
