Terming Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma "the most corrupt Chief Minister of the country", Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Friday said the Assam CM can give guidance to other Chief Ministers of the BJP on how to carry out corruption in their respective states.

Rahul Gandhi also stated that Chief Minister Sarma follows direct orders from the Centre and Assam is being directly run by the BJP-led Centre.

Addressing the public in Lakhimpur, Rahul Gandhi said, "We say that Assam will not be run from Delhi, it will be run from here. Your (Assam) CM is the most corrupt CM in the country. He can teach other BJP Chief Ministers to commit corruption. Don't think he works for Assam. Whatever Modi says, he follows it by giving him a salute."

He further targeted Prime Minister Narendra Modi for not visiting Manipur to take stock of the current situation.

"Let me tell you the reason why we started our Nyay Yatra from Manipur. For the first time in Indian history, there is a civil war going on in Manipur. For months, violence and hatred have been spreading in Manipur, and people are being killed. Properties are being damaged but the Prime Minister has not visited them to date. Manipur has been divided due to his policies," the Congress leader said.

Earlier today, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi visited Sri Sri Auniati Satra in Assam. Rahul Gandhi took a boat ride to visit Auniati Satra and expressed his happiness after the visit.

"Today, took a boat trip down the Brahmaputra River in Assam to visit Sri Sri Auniati Satra. Culturally rich, the land of Shankar Dev Ji, Assam, teaches us the life philosophy of taking everyone along. It felt satisfying to get the opportunity to know and understand such a great culture so closely," Rahul Gandhi posted on X.

The Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra, led by Congress MP Rahul Gandhi, rolled into Assam on Thursday. (ANI)
