Sarma Slams Congress as Elitist After Gogoi’s APCC Appointment

After Gaurav Gogoi’s appointment as APCC president, Assam CM Himanta Biswa Sarma accused Congress of elitism and dynastic politics. He claimed the party favors “blue blood” leaders like Gogoi over grassroots workers like Bhupen Bora. Sarma said Congress values surnames over service, unlike BJP’s merit-based structure. Gogoi responded, calling the allegations baseless and reaffirmed his dedication to Assam and democratic values.
