Why would people of Assam come to see 'Amul Babies' Rahul & Priyanka, watching rhinos more beneficial: Himanta Biswa Sarma
Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma on Tuesday took a potshot at Congress leaders Priyanka Gandhi Vadra and Rahul Gandhi, comparing them with the 'Amul Babies'. He expressed that the people in Assam would rather see different animals than attend election campaign events organized by the Gandhi siblings. During an interaction with reporters, the Assam CM stated, «Why would people of Assam come to see the 'Amul Babies' of the Gandhi family? It would be better if he roams around in the forest and enjoys seeing different animals there.»
The Chief Minister's comments were made following Priyanka Gandhi's roadshow in support of Congress candidate Gaurav Gogoi in the Jorhat constituency on Tuesday. «What's the benefit of seeing the Gandhi family? They look fit for the Amul campaign, so they are Amul babies. It's more beneficial to watch rhinos at Kaziranga than catching a glimpse of Amul babies,» he remarked.
«I heard around 2,000-3,000 people gathered at Priyanka Vadra's roadshow in Jorhat. Who will come to see Priyanka Gandhi? People will rather visit Kaziranga and watch tigers and rhinos,» the CM further added. Earlier on April 16, expressing her sentiments, Priyanka Gandhi conveyed on X, «Today I will meet my sisters and my brothers in Jorhat, Assam and Tripura West.
