Notably, Waii served as the Minister of Home and Urban Development in the previous Arunachal government from 2014-2019. He recently attacked the BJP government in the state and accused it of misusing the Unlawful Activities Prevention Act (UAPA) and public funds.

He also expressed concerns that it could pose a threat to democracy if the trend continues as elected governments might misuse this act for their own agenda.

Meanwhile, the Congress top rung on Wednesday met in Delhi to discuss the party strategy for the Chhattisgarh assembly elections due later this year. The meeting was attended by party president Mallikarjun Kharge, former party chief Rahul Gandhi, Chhattisgarh Chief Minister Bhupesh Baghel, besides the party's in-charge for the state Kumari Selja and general secretary, organisation, KC Venugopal. The party's Chhattisgarh unit chief Mohan Markam and ministers, including T S Singh Deo, were also present at the meeting.

Kharge said party members will work together to keep bringing change in the lives of the people of Chhattisgarh. "Garhbo Nava Chhattisgarh' is not just a slogan for us, it is a goal for the state's progress and social justice. The people of Chhattisgarh and their unwavering faith in the Congress party will continue to propel the continuous stream of development," he tweeted.

Baghel later said on Twitter that the party was ready for assembly polls and the meeting discussed the changes in the lives of people following the 'Nava Chhattisgarh' model initiated by the Congress government in the state.
