The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) accused Congress leader Gaurav Gogoi’s wife, Elizabeth Colburn, of having links with Pakistan and ISI.
BJP national spokesperson Gaurav Bhatia said Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi, Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge and Gaurav Gogoi should clarify the issue related to Colburn. He also alleged that George Soros funds the organisation Colburn works at.
“Some concerning facts related to national security have come to light. Elizabeth Colburn, the wife of Deputy Leader of Opposition Gaurav Gogoi… her links with Pakistan Planning Commission Advisor Ali Tauqeer Sheikh and the ISI, have been found,” Bhatia told PTI.
“This is extremely concerning and related to national security, so it is expected that Rahul Gandhi, Mallikarjun Kharge and Gaurav Gogoi will clarify her relations with Pakistan and ISI. The question arising here is that while his wife is a foreign citizen, the organisation she works for is funded by George Soros,” he added.
