Speaking about the issue of controversial Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA), which the opposition parties including the newly formed Assam Jatiya Parishad (AJP) and Raijor Dal are taking up as their main election agenda, Himanta Biswa Sarma said that nobody anymore is talking about CAA.

“Nobody is discussing CAA. You can check social media. People are busy discussing that Assam has given scooty to girl students, and which two-wheeler the boys will get. Congress is behind by 50 years, brings up stale issues,” said Assam Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma.

On the other hand, criticizing the Congress over their ‘Axom Basaon Ahok’ campaign, Himanta Biswa Sarma questioned the Congress as to from whom they want to protect the State.

“From whom do they want to save Assam? If they want to save Assam, then, let them take a stand against the immigrant Muslims and say that we will protect Assam’s culture,” said Assam Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma.
