Assam CM Himanta Biswa Sarma, who has repeatedly alleged that Congress MP Gaurav Gogoi has links with Pakistan, on Wednesday, May 28, posted on X that the “Jorhat MP has finally admitted that he visited Pakistan.”
Earlier today, addressing a presser Gogoi stated that his wife, who is a public policy expert, was in Pakistan for a project on South-East Asia. Gogoi stated that it was during her stay in Pakistan, the Jorhat MP had visited Pakistan. He further shared that his visit to the neighbouring country took place in 2012-13.
“Finally , Congress MP Shri Gaurav Gogoi has admitted that he visited Pakistan. But let us be very clear – this is just the beginning, not the end. What lies ahead is far more serious. There exists every reasonable ground, supported by credible inputs and documented information, to suggest that Shri Gogoi has maintained proximity with the Pakistani establishment,” the CM posted om X.
He added, “The Government of Assam, committed to transparency and accountability, will make everything public on 10th September, once the Special Investigation Team (SIT) concludes its comprehensive inquiry. The people of Assam and the nation deserve the truth – and they shall have it, in full. But the people will also not forget – nor forgive – the Congress party and Shri Rahul Gandhi for deliberately promoting such a dangerous and compromised individual into the public life of our country.”
Gogoi, however, has vehemently dismissed the allegations against him and his wife. The Congress MP had asked Sarma to provide evidence for the allegations he was levelling.
