The people of Assam are getting ready to cast their votes, and the opposition is feeling positive about the outcome. They're not buying into the exit polls that say the ruling party will win. According to sources, the opposition alliance has been working together, and they think the people are looking for change.

The opposition leader, D.K. Shivakumar, thinks the exit polls are not reliable. He believes that some voters might have been too scared to share their true opinions, especially with the ruling party's influence and government welfare schemes in place. Shivakumar says the opposition has received feedback from many constituencies that shows the ruling party candidates are not very popular.

The opposition is taking the counting process very seriously. They're worried that the ruling party might try to influence the outcome by misusing their power. To prevent this, the opposition has briefed their candidates and agents on what to expect during the counting process and has deployed a team of lawyers to monitor the situation.

Shivakumar is confident that the people of Assam want a change, and the opposition is prepared to deliver. He's urging everyone to stay vigilant and make sure every vote counts.

The counting of votes will take place on May 4, and the opposition is hoping for a positive outcome. They're not expecting to rely on outside help to form the next government; they're counting on the people's choice.
