As part of the election campaign for the assembly polls in five states, Prime Minister Narendra Modi arrived in Assam on Monday. He is scheduled to hold three rallies today. Speaking in Barpeta, he asserted that the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) would achieve a hat-trick of victories in Assam, while the Congress party would suffer a "century" of defeats. He stated that the BJP delivers on its promises; unlike the Congress, which lacks a vision for development.

Congress leader Rahul Gandhi has also arrived in Puducherry. Speaking in Lawspet, he alleged that the Puducherry government takes a 30% commission on all contracts and has encroached upon temple lands. He promised that a Congress government in the state would provide a monthly financial assistance of ₹2,000 to unemployed youth and offer free bus services to women.

"A large number of our soldiers' families reside in Assam. The Congress party attempts to undermine even the valor of our armed forces. It has consistently sought to fuel the agenda of our enemies."
"The Congress has sung the very tune written and composed by Pakistan—the tune that pleases them. The Pakistan connection of Congress leaders invariably proves detrimental to the nation."
"The 'One Rank, One Pension' issue stands as a prime example of how the Congress has betrayed our armed forces. The Congress is willing to do anything to attain power, and Assam has suffered greatly as a result."
**Three Key Points from Rahul Gandhi's Speech:**

"We will generate 30,000 new jobs across both the government and private sectors. We will raise the upper age limit for recruitment into government jobs to 40 years. Every family will receive health insurance coverage worth ₹20 lakh."
"Law and order in Puducherry is deteriorating; people are afraid to venture out at night, and women and children feel unsafe."
"The Lieutenant Governor herself has acknowledged that drug addiction is spreading rapidly among school students in the state. They are fully aware that this problem exists."

**PM Modi Says: The People of Assam Must Remain Extremely Cautious and Vigilant**
"You must remain extremely cautious and vigilant. The Congress is openly siding with infiltrators. Furthermore, the Congress is now even opposing the actions being taken against these illegal encroachments." The PM stated that the Congress party is proposing to enact a law in Assam under which even those who use the term "infiltrator" could face imprisonment. Is such a law acceptable to you? The Congress would, through the very framework of the law, declare infiltrators to be victims. Consequently, the indigenous majority—the children of this land—would live under the constant threat of incarceration. In every interview and speech, Congress leaders are openly discussing their intent to enact such a law.

**PM Says: Congress Has Given Nothing to the Nation's Tribals**

PM Modi asserted that the Congress party has contributed absolutely nothing to the tribal communities of the country. He asked the audience to recall the events that unfolded in the Bodo region—the number of lives lost and the countless futures shattered—reminding them that they had witnessed these tragedies firsthand. He alleged that the Congress would sign agreements on paper, only to betray the tribal people on the ground.

He further stated that his government has prioritized the restoration of local peace. That is precisely why a celebration of peace is being held here today. Efforts are currently underway to integrate 10,000 such youths—who have laid down their arms—back into the mainstream of society. For the sake of enduring peace in Assam, it is absolutely essential to keep the Congress party out of the state.

**Himanta Alleges: Congress Leaders Sourcing Content from Pakistani Social Media Groups**

On Monday, Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma alleged that Congress leaders Pawan Khera and Gaurav Gogoi obtained the material they used during their press conference from Pakistani social media groups.

Speaking to the media in Guwahati, Himanta remarked, "Pakistan's interest in the Assam elections—and in supporting the Congress party—has evidently intensified. Over the past ten days alone, Pakistani television channels have aired 11 talk shows dedicated to this subject."

Himanta further alleged, "The underlying conclusion of every single one of these talk shows is that the Congress party *must* win. Yesterday's press conference has served to make the Congress party's connection with Pakistan even more glaringly obvious."

This controversy stems from allegations leveled by Pawan Khera, who claimed on Sunday that Chief Minister Sarma's wife, Rinki Bhuyan Sarma, possesses multiple passports and owns undisclosed business interests abroad. Assam CM's Press Conference: 5 Key Points

Generally, when you raise an issue before the public using forged documents, Sections 420 and 468 of the IPC apply. Naturally, corresponding provisions for this also exist within the new BNS.
When you level such allegations using fabricated documents with the intent to influence election results, provisions for severe punishment come into force—penalties that can extend up to life imprisonment.
My wife filed an FIR yesterday, and I am confident that the police will take the necessary action by registering a case under the appropriate sections of the law.
Why did you seek assistance from Pakistani social media groups? We intend to take legal action regarding every single allegation leveled against us; however, my specific charge is this: Why is Pakistan aiding Gaurav Gogoi?
We received information from an insider within the Congress party itself that something of this nature was being planned. Why has Tarun Gogoi's son, Gaurav Gogoi, stooped to such a low level? Furthermore, why do you not disclose the details of your ties with Pakistan?

PM Says: We Raised Paddy Prices; Farmers Are Happy Today

The Prime Minister remarked that Congress governments remain in power in only a handful of states across the country—so few, in fact, that one could count them on the fingers of a single hand. In these few remaining states, the Congress party never presents its "report card" to the public. In contrast, the BJP transparently informs the public about the specific measures it has undertaken to serve the people.
