Guwahati, April 28: A photograph circulating on social media has sparked controversy as it depicts members of the United People’s Party Liberal (UPPL), led by Pramod Boro, lounging on what appears to be stacks of Rs 500 notes.
Identified individuals in the image are Anthony Narzary and Johnny Boro, gaining significant traction amid the ongoing election fervor.
This development has raised questions given UPPL’s public stance against corruption, particularly under the leadership of Bodoland CEM Pramod Bodo.

The party initially emerged as an anti-corruption force, positioning itself in contrast to the Bodoland People’s Front (BPF) led by Hagrama Mohilary. Notably, UPPL maintains an alliance with the BJP in Assam.
With the Lok Sabha polls approaching, the BJP, alongside allies Asom Gana Parishad (AGP) and UPPL, is set to contest 11 and 3 seats, respectively.
