Guwahati: Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma has taken a sharp dig at Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, calling him a “symbol of bad luck” for his party. Speaking to reporters on the sidelines of an election rally in Bihar, Sarma remarked that wherever Rahul Gandhi goes, defeat follows. His comments drew laughter and applause from the crowd, who seemed to enjoy the jibe at the Congress leader’s expense.
Sarma’s comments come ahead of the upcoming state elections in Bihar, where the BJP is gearing up for a tough fight. The Assam CM has been crisscrossing districts, addressing rallies and interacting with the media as part of the BJP’s broader election outreach strategy. Sarma’s remarks are likely to add fuel to the already heated election campaign, with both the BJP and Congress stepping up their attacks on each other.
Sarma’s comments are part of the BJP’s strategy to corner the Congress and its leadership, with Rahul Gandhi being a particular target.
