Lurin alleged, “Despite making such objectionable remarks, why BJP govt has not taken any action against him– that is the question. The BJP party has a good relationship with the AIUDF as well.”
He said that AJP is always against any communal activities whether it is against Hindu, Muslim or Sikh.

“Nobody could evict you till I am alive,” Ahmed can be seen saying in a video on Wednesday. “Almighty will protect you,” he said.
Ahmed reportedly made the statement at the Bordoloi village, where the government has evicted alleged encroachers from a large tract of land.
In the video, Ahmed can be heard telling people that the Bharatiya Janata Party would rule the state for just five years and then those evicted can reclaim their lands.
