The Congress party strongly condemns the brutality shown by the Assam Police against the Koch-Rajbongshi students in Golakganj, who were peacefully demanding a Scheduled Tribe status.
This is the real face of the BJP!
This dastardly attack on innocent people exercising their fundamental rights is a blot on the Assam government, headed by CM Himanta Biswa Sarma.
The shameful incident exposes the BJP's total indifference towards the demands of the indigenous people. Instead of dialogue and justice, they have been forced to face suppression and betrayal.
Assam's vibrant youth deserve opportunity, dignity and respect towards their native culture.
We will not tolerate this vicious attack on the innocent. The Congress party will fight the BJP's hate politics tooth and nail! тЬК
