During a Congress workers’ rally at Chaygaon on July 16, 2025, Rahul Gandhi launched a fierce attack on Assam CM Himanta Biswa Sarma, accusing him of treating the state like his "kingdom" and transferring land to corporate giants like Adani and Ambani. Gandhi confidently predicted that Sarma would be imprisoned on corruption charges once Congress assumes power after the 2026 assembly elections—“neither Modi nor Amit Shah will be able to save him” . Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge echoed these claims, promising to rebuild homes destroyed in state eviction drives . In response, Sarma reminded Gandhi that he’s currently out on bail in multiple cases. (PC: Screengrab)
