Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma on September 16 lashed out at Congress leader Rahul Gandhi claiming that the northeastern region is missing from a map of India shared by the party on social media.
The grand old party's MP from the State, Gaurav Gogoi, was quick to retort by asking the CM about the land deals by companies linked to his family, claiming that Mr. Sarma is "avoiding" answering it.
Mr. Gogoi, who has been locked in a war of words on X with Mr. Sarma since Wednesday on the issue of the CM's wife's company allegedly given a credit subsidy of ₹10 crore by the Central Government under a scheme, said he feared his account on the micro-blogging site was "restricted", though there has been no official word from the social media giant.
