Congress nearly joined conspiracy to make Assam part of East Pakistan: PM Modi

Prime Minister Modi launched a sharp attack on Congress in Guwahati, accusing the party of a pre-Independence conspiracy with the Muslim League and British to annex Assam into East Pakistan. He alleged Congress later altered Assam’s demography for electoral gains, leading to encroachment on land and forests, jeopardizing the state’s security and identity. Modi urged vigilance against such ‘anti-national’ agendas.
