Assam Congress president-designate Gaurav Gogoi launched a strong attack on the BJP-led state government, accusing them of prioritizing power, money, and land over public welfare. Gogoi's allegations come amid claims of environmental degradation and mismanagement, factors that have led to severe flooding in Guwahati.
In a rally beginning in Sivasagar, Gogoi, accompanied by numerous supporters, aimed to highlight the alleged encroachment and corruption fostered by those close to the ruling party. The procession is set to cover several districts, drawing attention to issues impacting urban development and government accountability.
