Assam CM Accuses Congress MP Gaurav Gogoi's Wife of Pakistan Ties

Gaurav Gogoi rejects allegations of his wife's links to Pakistan's ISI, calling them politically motivated and baseless.

Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma and BJP leaders allege Elizabeth Gogoi, wife of Congress MP Gaurav Gogoi, has professional ties to Pakistan's ISI and Planning Commission advisor Ali Tauqeer Sheikh.
The BJP claims Elizabeth Gogoi's past work with the Climate and Development Knowledge Network (CDKN) in Pakistan raises national security concerns, citing links to foreign organizations and individuals.
Gaurav Gogoi dismisses the allegations as baseless, accusing the BJP of a smear campaign to divert attention from land scam allegations involving Sarma's family.
The Assam cabinet plans to review the allegations, with Sarma questioning Elizabeth Gogoi's foreign citizenship and her professional background.
Gaurav Gogoi counters that the BJP is attempting to undermine him ahead of the 2026 Assam Assembly elections, citing similar accusations made during previous polls.
