Union Minister and Assam's likely chief minister designate Sarbanda Sonowal has described Prime Minister Narendra Modi as a great head of government and as a man of impeccable character.

Newly-elected Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) legislators in Assam will meet here on Sunday to elect Sarbananda Sonowal as the leader of the legislature party, formalising the choice as the new Chief Minister of the state.

The BJP on Thursday made history in Assam, decimating Congress which was dethroned in Kerala too even as Jayalalithaa and Mamata Banerjee romped home for a second consecutive term in Tamil Nadu and West Bengal.

Undoubtedly, it's a historic win for BJP as the people of Assam have voted for change giving the saffron party its first government in the northeastern state by dislodging the Congress.

Terming the mandate in Assam a result of people's faith in Prime Minister Narendra Modi, union Power Minister Piyush Goyal said that the Bharatiya Janata Party is emerging as an alternative in Tamil Nadu and Kerala.

A low-profile man but always sporting an infectious smile, Sarbananda Sonowal is now all set to be Assam's second tribal chief minister after legendary Jogen Hazarika in the 1970s.

As BJP appeared poised to form its maiden government in the northeastern state, BJP chief ministerial candidate in Assam Sarbananda Sonowal on Thursday revealed his government's top priorities.
