Overview
- Himanta Biswa Sarma predicted a BJP clean sweep in 2026 and said Gaurav Gogoi would lose and could then contest in Pakistan.
- Sarma accused Congress of politicising Zubeen Garg’s death to protect ‘Miyas’ and criticised Akhil Gogoi for what he called selective activism.
- The Assam government said the Centre granted sanction under BNSS Section 208 for the Garg investigation, and the SIT signalled it plans to file a chargesheet by December 10.
- Sarma claimed the probe suggests a conspiracy to keep Garg intoxicated, a characterization presented as his allegation rather than confirmed findings.
- The Election Commission ordered a Special Revision of Assam’s electoral rolls with January 1, 2026 as the qualifying date, while the SIT report on alleged Pakistani links tied to Gogoi’s circle remains submitted but unreleased.
