But Hussain is expected to give the AIUDF chief a run for his money this time around.For Hussain, who holds sway in parts of central Assam, it is his maiden parliamentary election.

He woos people through magical healing but it will not keep him in a good stead this election,” Hussain claimed.But Ajmal dismissed the old tiger barb by saying that a tiger is a tiger, whether young or old. “I am young enough to marry again,” he said. He predicted that Hussain’s defeat is “100% certain”. “Nobody can defeat Ajmal in Dhubri. I will win by 5 to 6 lakh votes,” he said confidently.
