Chandan Brahma is a politician from Assam belonging to the Bodoland People's Front who represented the Sidli Assembly constituency of Kokrajhar district from 2006 until 2021.[1] [2] [3] [4] He was first elected to the Assam Legislative Assembly in 2006 as an independent candidate and later joined the Bodoland People's Front.
He was appointed a cabinet minister in the Government of Assam under chief minister Tarun Gogoi in 2006 and assigned the portfolios of Panchayat and Rural Development and Transport. He was re-appointed a cabinet minister in 2011[5] and was assigned the portfolios of Transport, Tourism, and Welfare of Plain Tribes and Backward Classes (only BTAD areas). Following the Bodoland People's Front's decision to withdraw from the United Progressive Alliance in the aftermath of the 2014 general election, Brahma tendered his resignation from the council of ministers on 29 June 2014.[6]
The Bodoland People's Front contested the 2016 state assembly election as a part of the National Democratic Alliance and upon the victory of the NDA, two of the party's legislators Pramila Rani Brahma and Rihon Daimary were appointed cabinet ministers in the cabinet of Sarbananda Sonowal.[7] In a cabinet reshuffle on 26 April 2018,[8] Brahma was inducted into the council of ministers and assigned the portfolios of Tourism and Welfare of Plain Tribes and Backward Classes.
