My vehicle was attacked a few minutes ago at Jumugurihat, Sunitpur by an unruly BJP crowd who also tore off the Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra stickers from the windshield. They threw water and shouted anti-BJNY slogans. But we kept our composure, waved to the hooligans and sped away.… pic.twitter.com/IabpNa598P

Congress leader Jairam Ramesh claims his vehicle was attacked by an "unruly BJP crowd" during the party's 'Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra' in Jumugurihat, Assam. The incident involved tearing off Yatra stickers and shouting anti-BJNY slogans. Ramesh accuses Assam CM Himanta Biswa Sarma of orchestrating the attack, vowing to continue the yatra undeterred. Congress spokesperson Supriya Shrinate alleges the assault extended to a party cameraman and social media team members. AICC communications coordinator Mahima Singh reports police involvement and claims of equipment snatching during the BJP event. Tensions rise as accusations fly in Assam.
