"Tomorrow every party will have their meetings regarding the election at 5 pm. So it will be clear, who will win or who will lose," Sarma said.

"Some members from some parties are likely to abstain. I hope that all the legislators of these three parties will not support this conflicting ideological alliance... If C P Joshi or the high command ask me to vote for BJP tomorrow, then I will not vote. I cannot compromise on my ideological front," he added.

Taking a dig at the media, Sarma alleged that the fourth pillar of democracy is triggering confusions between MLAs.

"Even if we meet for normal business, media terms it as a meeting for horse trading. Media is spoiling the relationship between the MLAs," he alleged.

Sarma further said Sinh will be Congress' first choice, making his win confirm.

"The rest of the votes will be divided equally between Kalita and Daimary," he added.

On opposition candidate Hussain, Sarma said he is mulling to file a defamation case against him because of his alleged demeaning remarks against all the MLAs of the state in a TV talk show.

He also said BJP does not have any moral right to talk about indigenous issue regarding Sinh's candidature as it itself fielded candidates across the country.
