GUWAHATI: Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma has escalated attacks on Congress leader Gaurav Gogoi, accusing him of having deep links with Pakistan, and asserted that all details regarding this matter will be revealed soon.
Speaking to reporters here, CM Sarma said, "Gaurav Gogoi and his family have strong ties with Pakistan, and the investigation team has received startling revelations on this matter. I will make everything public within a short span of time. He has been working on the behest of a foreign country, and we have definite proof regarding his activities."
The Chief Minister sharpened his attack on Gogoi, calling him a "Pakistani agent" and alleging that he was "planted by foreign powers" in India.
He said, "Gaurav Gogoi has not uttered a single word against the person who sang Bangladesh's national anthem inside the Congress party office. He is a Pakistani agent. I challenge the Assam Congress president to file a defamation case against me if he has the courage."
