In a heated exchange ahead of the Assam assembly elections, Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma sharply dismissed Congress's assertions that Prime Minister Narendra Modi controls his actions, calling the claims 'crazy.'

The political fray intensified as Congress leader Rahul Gandhi alleged that Modi is swayed by former President Donald Trump, extending the control analogy to Sarma, attributing it to Modi's knowledge of alleged corruption and crimes.

Sarma, addressing concerns about the Uniform Civil Code (UCC), reassured citizens that tribal communities will be exempt, aligning with Prime Minister Modi's assurances of preserving Assam's identity and traditions during his rally in Gogamukh. As the election battle looms, voter sentiment is being swayed by such pointed debates.
