GUWAHATI: Assam chief minister Himanta Biswa Sarma, on Monday (May 01), slammed the Congress party while campaigning for the Karnataka assembly elections.
Assam chief minister Himanta Biswa Sarma said that the Congress party will not win any election for the next 100 years.
“I don’t think that Congress can do anything. Nobody should keep in mind that Congress will come to power. Congress will not win for the next 100 years,” the Assam CM said.
The Assam CM was addressing an election rally for BJP candidate from Tumakuru assembly constituency in Karnataka.
“This constituency (Tumakuru) symbolizes the corruption and inefficiency of Congress. Today, out of 342 villages, most villages don’t have drinking water and road,” the Assam CM said.
