Gaurav Gogoi’s reaction came soon after the Assam government removed the name of Rajiv Gandhi (former Prime Minister) from Assam’s Orang National Park.
“Rajiv Gandhi Orang National Park to be renamed as Orang National Park, taking cognizance of the demands of Adivasi and tea tribe communities,” Assam chief minister Himanta Biswa Sarma tweeted while sharing the decisions of the Assam Cabinet.
