Congress MLA apologises to voters in Assam

It is probably the rarest of the views when a public representative sits on his knees with folded hands to seek forgiveness from his voters for not fulfilling his promises. Believe it or not, this is what a Congress MLA belonging to the tea tribe community has done to his voters in full public glare.

Rupjyoti Kurmi, a Congress MLA, son of former Assam cabinet minister Rupam Kurmi went down on his knees before some patients of a government-run hospital in his constituency Mariani in upper Assam's Jorhat district.
