Congress leader Gaurav Gogoi on Wednesday slammed the summoning of two senior journalists by Assam Police in connection with a case registered on sedition charges, saying the state is “again in the news for all the wrong reasons” and it has been engulfed by “greed, corruption, incompetency, lawlessness”.
Reacting to Assam Police’s summons to senior journalists Siddharth Varadarajan and Karan Thapar in connection with a case registered on sedition charges, Gogoi said this was not the “Assam way” and the people of the state want a leadership that will build an “Assam of their dreams”.
“Another day, another reason when Assam is in the news for all the wrong reasons. Greed, corruption, incompetency, lawlessness. This is not the Assam way. The people of Assam want a leadership that will build an Assam of their dreams,” he wrote on ‘X’.
