Congress Slams BJP Over Deleted Video Of Assam CM Himanta Biswa Sarma Taking Aim

This report focuses on the escalating political row in Assam ahead of the upcoming assembly elections. The Congress party has strongly criticised the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) following a controversial video involving Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma. The video, which has since been deleted by the BJP, reportedly showed the Chief Minister taking aim with Bangladeshi Muslims depicted as targets on the other side. Describing the footage as a 'fascist genocide vid', the Congress has questioned whether Prime Minister Narendra Modi will take action against such 'hate' and 'point-blank murder provocation'. The opposition further alleged that the BJP is spreading hate and provoking mass genocide in a highly polarised scenario. The programme highlights the intensifying poll battle and the silence of the central leadership regarding repeated provocations against a specific community in the state.
