Kamrup: Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Wednesday said that Congress will sweep next year’s assembly polls in Assam and launched a sharp attack on Himanta Biswa Sarma, saying he does not think himself as Chief Minister but a “king”.
Addressing a rally in Chhaygaon, Rahul Gandhi said that the party has a new team in the state under leadership of party MP Gaurav Gogoi and it will deliver results.
“The people of Assam know the truth… There will be elections soon, and the Congress will sweep those elections. We have created a new team here. We have started the work, and the people of Assam will soon see the results we will see it,” he said.
Rahul Gandhi, who is Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha, termed Biswa as India’s “most corrupt Chief Minister” and said some day he will have to “account for it”.
He said that Chief Minister has “fear in his mind as he knows one day ‘babber shers’ of Congress will take him jail”.
The Congress leader accused BJP of resorting to cheating in Maharashtra assembly polls.
“Some time ago, elections were held in Maharashtra, and the BJP engaged in blatant cheating. In the four months between the Lok Sabha and Assembly elections, one crore new voters were added. We asked the Election Commission–where did these people come from, who are they? Show us the voter list and provide the videography. But… the Election Commission has not given us the voter list to this day; instead, it changed the law related to videography,” he said.
Rahul Gandhi urged people to be cautious.
“BJP and the Election Commission are working together. The Election Commission is not fulfilling its responsibilities; it is only listening to BJP leaders. We have repeatedly asked the Election Commission for the voter list. I wrote a letter requesting the voter list and videos, but received nothing. They only make excuses and do not do their job,” he alleged.
