GUWAHATI: Former Union Minister and four-time Nagaon MP Rajen Gohain on Wednesday formally joined the Assam Jatiya Parishad (AJP), marking a significant political shift in Assam's evolving landscape.

The veteran politician, who was once considered a key BJP stalwart in the state, resigned from the party on October 9, citing "growing discontent" with its leadership and direction.

Gohain joined the AJP along with a group of his supporters at a ceremony held at the PWD Auditorium in Guwahati.
