It’s is six this time against a high of 14 in 2011
The number of women MLAs in the 126-member Assam Assembly has been declining from a high of 14 in 2011.
Six women were elected to the House this time three from the BJP, two from the Congress and one from the Asom Gana Parishad (AGP).
Ajanta Neog (BJP), who won the Golaghat seat, is the most experienced among the six, having represented the constituency four times as a Congress candidate since 2001. She is the wife of former Congress leader Nagen Neog who was killed along with eight others in an ambush by the banned United Liberation Front of Asom in 1996.

BJP created history by winning Assam the second time in a row. This is the first time that a non-Congress party has bagged Assam twice consecutively and that too with 60 seats, just 4 short of the target of 64 in the 126-member Assam Assembly

Guwahati: The verdict was clear. It is another term for the BJP-led NDA in Assam. BJP won 60 of the total 126 seats and its allies AGP won 9 and UPPL won 6 seats.
With a total of 73, NDA (National Democratic Alliance made up of BJP and its allies) is once again in a very comfortable position to form the government in Assam for the second time in a row. This is the first time that a non-Congress party has romped back to power in Assam.
