Assam Assembly Elections: Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma launched a scathing attack on Congress on Wednesday.

He also announced a major infrastructure boost initiative, including a proposed six-lane express highway between Guwahati and Nagaon. Speaking to reporters, Chief Minister Sarma claimed that Congress has no political future in India.

Taking an indirect dig at the alleged Pakistani links of Assam Congress President Gaurav Gogoi, the Chief Minister said that my wife has no connection with Pakistan and there is no question of my joining the Congress.

‘Congress will form government in Pakistan’

CM Sarma further said that Congress will form government in Pakistan and Bangladesh but it will never be able to form government in Assam. Taking aim at the opposition, Chief Minister Sarma accused Congress leaders of doing irresponsible politics. He also alleged that the Congress leader involved in rhino poaching would no longer have the courage to show his face in Nagaon. People are aware of such activities and those responsible for it will have to face consequences.
