Rouf is one of several legislators in Assam linked with the AIUDF, a regional political party that has been active in articulating the political concerns of minority and marginalised communities in the state. The AIUDF has had a notable presence in lower Assam and the Barak Valley, regions that have historically returned legislators on platforms emphasising minority rights, agrarian issues and regional development.
Rouf entered the Assam Legislative Assembly through the 1996 general election to the state legislature. The 1996 polls were significant in Assam's political history, marking a phase in which regional and minority-oriented formations consolidated their presence alongside national parties such as the Indian National Congress and the Bharatiya Janata Party.
As a legislator from Assam, Rouf's tenure forms part of the broader chronology of representation from the state in the post-1985 period, during which the political landscape was shaped by issues of citizenship, language, land and identity. His association with the AIUDF places him within the trajectory of minority-led political mobilisation in Assam.
