Congress represents ‘new Mughals’: Assam CM Himanta

BELAGAVI: Assam CM Himanta Biswa Sarma said Congress represents the “new Mughals” and is working to weaken the country. “Earlier, the Mughal invaders tried to weaken India. Now, Congress is doing it. Why do you speak in favour of Babri Masjid and not for Ram Mandir?” he said.
He also spoke of shutting down all madrassas in Assam. The Assam government has shut close to 600 state-run madrasas across the state, but spared those managed by private organisations.
“I come from Assam, which faces the threat of infiltration from Bangladesh every day. There is a threat to our culture. The time has come to rewrite our history in a new way as it has been distorted,” Sarma further said.
