Prime Minister Narendra Modi, on Sunday, delivered a scathing critique of the Congress, accusing the party of surrendering Assam's land to infiltrators in exchange for votes during its administration of the state.

Speaking at a rally, Modi highlighted the BJP's efforts to protect Assam's cultural identity by removing illegal settlers, contrasting it with the so-called 'negative politics' of Congress, which he claimed has eroded the party's reliability.
