Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma made a bold statement on Monday, saying he would disown his son if he had any ties with Pakistan. In a video clip shared on his X account, Sarma emphasized the importance of loyalty and patriotism, stating that having relations with Pakistan would be unacceptable. While not mentioning specific names, Sarma's comments appear to target Congress MP Gaurav Gogoi and his wife Elizabeth, whom he accused of working for Pakistan. Sarma claimed to have evidence of their alleged involvement in a cartel that helps Pakistan, saying 'She works for the state of Pakistan.' The Assam CM also expressed outrage over the lynching of Hindu man Dipu Chandra Das in Bangladesh. Sarma said the incident would have sparked the same level of anger if it had happened to someone from a different faith. Investigations suggest that the lynching may have been triggered by a workplace dispute, rather than blasphemy as initially reported. Sarma's remarks have sparked controversy, with many questioning the Chief Minister's accusations against the Congress leader and their wife. The incident highlights the sensitive nature of interfaith relations and the need for responsible leadership in addressing such issues.
