Pakabetbari Assembly Election Results 2026

Pakabetbari Assembly constituency is one of the 126 constituencies in the Assam Legislative Assembly, created as a new seat in the 2023 delimitation exercise. It is located in the Nalbari-Barpeta corridor of lower Assam and falls under the Barpeta Lok Sabha segment. The constituency covers rural, agrarian communities in the Brahmaputra floodplain. The main political parties in Assam include the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), Congress, Asom Gana Parishad (AGP), All India United Democratic Front (AIUDF), Bodoland People's Front (BPF), United People's Party Liberal (UPPL), and the Communist Party of India (Marxist) (CPM). As a newly created constituency, Pakabetbari does not carry a direct 2021 result. In 2026, a notable political shift defines the contest: Congress fields Jakir Hussain Sikdar — who won Sarukhetri in 2021 with 77,045 votes as the INC candidate — now contesting Pakabetbari for Congress, against BJP's Dr. Tara Prasad Das. The 2026 Assam Assembly elections will test Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma's BJP-led government, which swept to power with a comfortable majority in 2021. With the opposition Congress-AIUDF combine seeking to consolidate anti-incumbency sentiment, every constituency will be a crucial battleground in deciding whether the state returns a second consecutive BJP government.
