Overview
- Speaking in Nalbari, Himanta Biswa Sarma said the BJP would make a clean sweep in the 2026 Assam Assembly elections.
- He accused the Congress of exploiting Zubeen Garg’s death to protect 'Miyas' and intensified attacks on state party chief Gaurav Gogoi.
- Sarma taunted that Gogoi would lose in Assam and could contest in Pakistan, while his earlier ISI-link allegations remain without published SIT findings.
- He faulted activist-MLA Akhil Gogoi for being absent on Garg’s 53rd birthday, claiming he was in Mumbai meeting Sharad Pawar.
- On the case, Sarma claimed investigators see a conspiracy to keep Garg intoxicated, as officials noted a central sanction under BNSS Section 208 and an SIT plan to file a chargesheet by December 10.
