DIBRUGARH, Nov 14: State cabinet minister and Dibrugarh MLA Prasanta Phukan on Friday said Congress leader Rahul Gandhi should “quit politics and open a shop in London”.
His remark came after the NDA’s decisive victory in the Bihar Assembly elections.

Expressing confidence about Assam’s political landscape, he added that the BJP was poised to secure a similar landslide victory in the upcoming Assam Assembly elections under the leadership of Prime Minister Modi and chief minister Himanta Biswa Sarma.
Celebrations broke out in BJP offices across Assam following the NDA’s victory in Bihar.
In Dibrugarh, minister Phukan joined party workers at the district BJP office, where he burst firecrackers and took part in festivities.
Fireworks echoed through the area as workers and supporters exchanged sweets and congratulated one another.
More than 200 BJP workers and supporters attended the celebration, including district BJP president Dulal Bora.
Extending his congratulations to Prime Minister Modi and Nitish Kumar, Phukan said the mandate in Bihar reflected the people’s trust in the NDA.
