Assam CM hopeful of Congress victory

Assam Chief Minister Tarun Gogoi today said the Congress would definitely win more than the nine seats it had won in the state in 2004 due to the development work undertaken by his government. 

"Never before so much development work had been done in the state as it was done by my government. We have been successful in bringing in central funds for development. People will vote for development and we will increase our seats from last time", a confident chief minister told newsmen after casting his vote for the the prestigious Jorhat Lok Sabha constituency in Jorhat town.

Polling for 11 Lok Sabha seats is being held in the state today amidst tight security. Elections for three seats were held in the first phase on April 16.
