Assam Minister Ranjeet Kumar Dass on February 15, launched a sharp attack on Congress MP Gaurav Gogoi, making controversial remarks during a public event in Pathsala.
Speaking at the inauguration of the newly constructed office building of the Public Health Engineering (PHE) Department, Bajali Division, Dass said, “Gaurav Gogoi can go to Pakistan and have tea worth Rs 150 at an airport.”
Contrasting himself with the Congress leader, the Minister added, “I drink tea at roadside stalls or small local tea shops,” projecting himself as someone connected to common people.
He further claimed that there is a vast difference in ideology between the Congress and the BJP. “The Congress policy is Rahul first, people second, and the nation third,” he alleged, referring to Congress leader Rahul Gandhi.
After inaugurating the newly constructed PHE office building, Dass made several significant political remarks in his address. Local officials, party workers, and residents were present at the event.
