Morigaon, Dec 2: The ‘Youth Jodo, Bharat Jodo Yatra’ on Saturday reached Morigaon with a rally being
organized here by the Assam Pradesh Youth Congress. The rally was led by Congress MP Pradyut
Bordoloi.
The rally began at the district Congress office in Morigaon, passing through Civil Road and finally
culminating at the Morigaon Bihutoli ground. Senior opposition leader MLA as well as the executive
president of Assam Pradesh Congress Committee, Kamalakha Purakastha, MLA Rakibul Hussain,
president of Assam Pradesh Youth Congress Juber Alam, MLAs Sibamoni Bora, Asif Nazar, Sasimuhan
Biswas, president of Congress district committee Swaban Dekaraja and other members were also
present on the occasion.
More than five hundred Congress workers took part in the rally.
Addressing the media, Rakibul Hussain said, “The present BJP government has been playing politics with
general people in the state for which people have come out spontaneously to support the Youth Jodo
Yatra programme. In fact this should ring alarm bells for the BJP government. A split has occurred
between old and new workers of the saffron party as the importance of old BJP workers is diminishing in
the party.”
