In his speech, Hussain raised serious concerns about syndicate operations, the process of granting Scheduled Tribe (ST) status to six communities, and the alleged murder of popular artist Zubeen Garg. He questioned the delay in uncovering the truth behind the incident, stating that “Justice for Zubeen Garg is becoming like an elephant’s tusk — visible on the outside but hollow within.”
Prominent Congress leaders Abdus Sobahan Sarkar (MLA, Golokganj), Wazed Ali Choudhury (MLA, South Salmara), and Mostafa Khaddam Hussain, General Secretary, Assam Pradesh Congress Committee, were also present.
The event concluded on an enthusiastic note, with new members pledging to strengthen the Congress Party in Dhubri ahead of the upcoming political season.
