Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday addressed a public rally in Assam's Dibrugarh where he alleged that the Congress was promoting "anti-national ideologies" and wants to settle Bangladeshi infiltrators in the state.
He went on to slam the grand old party, saying it was bothered about its vote bank and not the identity of the people of Assam. The Prime Minister further alleged that the Congress opposed the purification of the voter list because of its alleged reliance on what illegal migrants.
"The Congress party is still promoting anti-national ideologies. These people want to settle those Bangladeshi infiltrators in the forests and lands of Assam to strengthen their vote bank. They don't care if you are ruined. The Congress party has no concern for Assam, its people, or your identity," he said.
"They are only interested in power, government, and continuing the same practices they engaged in before. That's why they prefer illegal Bangladeshi infiltrators... That's why the Congress party is opposing the voter list purification. We must protect Assam from this poisonous Congress policy of appeasement and vote bank politics. I guarantee you that the BJP stands with you like a rock to protect the identity and honour of Assam," PM Modi added, reaffirming BJP's commitment.
He further said that the northeast state's recent development momentum is only the beginning of a larger transformation, asserting that the state would play a key role in India’s journey towards becoming a developed nation.
“Today, everyone is saying that Assam has gained the pace of development. I want to tell you that what you are seeing and experiencing is just the beginning," he said.
He emphasised the need for collective effort to further accelerate the state’s progress. “We have to take Assam forward together,” the Prime Minister added.
Drawing a historical parallel, PM Modi added: "Assam had a significant role in the Ahom empire, and in a Viksit Bharat, we will make Assam shine similarly.”
