The KADCC in a press release said a news item published in an Assamese daily on its issue of June 14 indicating Timung’s nexus with the Congress party “is false, baseless and fabricated”.
“Congress party has always been on its fight against anti-social elements and activities. So, the said news is nothing but just an attempt to malign the image of the party,” said the release.
The KADCC requested the media not to publish such news in future for the sake of peace and harmony.
