Pawan Khera appeared before the Guwahati Crime Branch as his allegations against Assam CM Himanta Biswa Sarma’s family sparked a major BJP-Congress political row.
A day after took oath once again as the Chief Minister of Assam, senior Congress leader appeared before the Guwahati Crime Branch for questioning in a high-profile political controversy that has now intensified the BJP-Congress faceoff in the state.
The questioning is linked to controversial allegations earlier made by Pawan Khera against Himanta Biswa Sarma and his wife, Riniki Bhuyan Sharma. Khera had publicly raised accusations regarding alleged foreign properties and multiple passports, triggering massive political outrage in Assam. Following his statements, criminal complaints were filed against the Congress leader under various sections related to defamation, forgery, and dissemination of allegedly false information.
Political circles are now recalling Himanta Biswa Sarma’s strong warning against opposition leaders targeting his family. BJP supporters claim that the Assam Chief Minister has shown that allegations without proof will face legal consequences under the law.
On Wednesday, visuals of Pawan Khera entering the Guwahati Crime Branch office quickly went viral across social media platforms, sparking intense reactions from both BJP and Congress supporters. While Congress leaders accused the Assam government of misusing investigative agencies to target opposition voices, BJP leaders maintained that no individual is above the law and every allegation must be backed by evidence.
The matter had already reached multiple courts, including the Supreme Court, where Khera was granted anticipatory bail earlier. However, the political temperature surrounding the issue continues to rise as Assam heads into another phase of aggressive political confrontation between the BJP and Congress.
