On the inclusion of MPs from the Northeast in the Indian delegation, which will visit several national capitals to brief countries about India’s stand in its war against Pakistan-sponsored terrorism, Sarma said, “We are very happy that three important MPs from the Northeast have been included.”
Assam CM Himanta Biswa Sarma has launched a scathing attack on Congress MP Gaurav Gogoi, accusing him of visiting Pakistan on the invitation of Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI). The Assam CM added that Gogoi went to Pakistan to “receive training”, as he stressed, “We have that document.” CM Himanta added, “Gaurav Gogoi went there after receiving the letter from the Pakistan Home Department. He went there following the invitation of the Pakistan government. Not External Affairs, Cultural Ministry; he went there at the invitation of the Pakistan Home Department. It is a serious matter. After this, more considerable action will be taken.”
Here’s what the Assam CM said
On the inclusion of MPs from the Northeast in the Indian delegation, which will visit several national capitals to brief governments and countries about India’s stand in its war against Pakistan-sponsored terrorism, Sarma said, “We are very happy that three important MPs from the Northeast have been included in the Indian delegation, one from Nagaland and two from Assam.”
“We are feeling extremely proud, and we feel that all the MPs from our region will be able to contribute meaningfully in representing India on the global platform,” says Assam CM Himanta Biswa Sarma on the all-party delegation visiting key partner countries to showcase India’s continued fight against terrorism and Operation Sindoor,” he added.
CM Himanta urges Rahul Gandhi to drop Gogoi as his deputy in Lok Sabha
Earlier, CM Himanta urged Congress leader Rahul Gandhi to drop his deputy in Lok Sabha, Gaurav Gogoi, from the list of four parliamentarians proposed by the opposition party for the delegations to be sent abroad to explain India’s stand on Pakistan-backed terrorism.
Reposting the list shared by Congress leader Jairam Ramesh on X, Sarma said the MP from Assam should not be included in the all-party delegations “in the interest of national security”.
“One of the MPs named in the list (from Assam) has not denied his prolonged stay in Pakistan,, reportedly for two weeks, and credible documents show that his wife was drawing a salary from a Pakistan-based NGO while working in India,” the CM alleged, without naming Gogoi directly.
