Another opposition party, Badruddin Ajmal, led AIUDF, couldn't win a single municipality board or town committee. Independent candidates won two municipality boards. Electronic Voting Machines (EVM) were used for the first time in the civic body elections in Assam. 

Reacting to the massive victory, state BJP said it is a result of the all-round development work continued by the BJP government for the last six years. Senior spokesperson Ranjib Sharma said, " BJP government has provided good governance to all religions, caste and communities of the state for last 6 years and the party has been accepted by every citizen of Assam.
