Congress leader Gaurav Gogoi accused Assam CM Himanta Biswa Sarma of ignoring rampant illegal coal mining after the ED seized ₹1.58 crore and exposed daily extraction of 1200 tonnes. Sarma hit back, calling Congress hypocritical for criticizing yet using ED findings. The ED’s probe has revealed fake invoicing and syndicate links across Assam and Meghalaya.
