Dibrugarh: The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Monday recorded a clean sweep in Dibrugarh district, winning all six Assembly constituencies in the ongoing Assam Assembly elections.

The victory came from the Dibrugarh constituency, where four-time BJP MLA and state Power Minister Prasanta Phukan defeated Assam Jatiya Parishad's Mainak Patra by a margin of 72,043 votes, his fifth consecutive win from the tea city and his largest victory margin to date.

"This overwhelming mandate is a reflection of the people's trust in the BJP government and Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma. I am humbled and will continue to serve Dibrugarh with the same sincerity," Phukan said after his win.
