Assam’s Chief Minister, Himanta Biswa Sarma, launched a scathing attack on Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi, particularly concerning her remarks about Jyotiraditya Scindia and his family. Sarma expressed deep concern, stating that such statements had hurt people’s sentiments significantly.
Sarma emphasized, “The language Priyanka Gandhi used for Jyotiraditya Scindia is highly inappropriate, causing distress to many. When I was associated with the Congress, I closely observed Scindia, seeing him as a capable public servant and a true soldier of the Congress party. It’s immensely saddening to hear such disrespectful words for him.”
