Silcharites have always been politically different from the rest of Assam all through out ..when its AGP at the state, its Congress in Silchar , when its Congress at the state its
BJP at Silchar . Silcharites in the recent years (after the Babri Masjid issue came up ) have been pro-BJP and
pro Santosh Mohan Deb .. (click here for LokSabha results for last 3 polls ).  Silchar is always affected by national issues more than the state issues . The local associations like AC(K)SA (All Cachar Karimganj Students Association ) have become big forces when it comes to voice our local demands and needs. And you can guess the political uniqueness of Silchar when you
come to know that in the 1998 polls it was the only seat that BJP won from the whole of North East . Yes we 
are different ... we are proud to be ...
