Assam MP Gogoi's Pakistan Links: SIT Report Ready, MHA to Decide
Assam CM says SIT findings on Gogoi's alleged Pakistan ties are complete and will be sent to MHA; fresh charges surface about a Pakistan-based firm employing his wife.
A political storm is brewing in Assam as Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma asserts that the SIT probe into Congress MP Gaurav Gogoi's alleged Pakistan links is complete and will be forwarded to the Ministry of Home Affairs for consideration.
Sarma pointed to what he described as central roles played by a Pakistani national and a British citizen, though he did not name the individuals. He also alleged that a Pakistan-based firm employed Gogoi's wife, with salary reportedly paid by a Pakistani national, a claim he said warranted central intervention.
The cabinet's decision to refer the Gogoi case to the central agency underscores the national-security framing of the controversy, which has dominated Assam politics in recent weeks.
Analysts say the move signals greater central oversight, while Gogoi's supporters insist that due process and solid evidence are essential before any judgments are made.
The dispute adds to the political heat ahead of elections, with the ruling party and opposition trading accusations while the public awaits a transparent, impartial resolution.
