The Barpeta Lok Sabha constituency in Assam has witnessed a significant demographic change following the delimitation exercise last year, shifting from a Muslim-majority to a Hindu-majority seat. The constituency comprises 10 assembly segments and has historically been held by Congress and CPIM, except for 2014 when AIUDF's Sirajuddin Ajmal won. Congress's Abdul Khaleque, the former MP, was dropped due to the constituency's changing demographics, and the party has fielded Deep Bayan.
