Guwahati: President of the Assam Pradesh Congress Committee (APCC) Bhupen Bora on Monday said that the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) should rename its ‘Jan Ashirbad Yatra’ to ‘Jan Khama (Apology) Yatra’.
Bora alleged that as the BJP is not able to fulfill their promises made to the people of Assam, the BJP is trying to avoid responsibilities and is trying to hide its failures by organizing the ‘Jan Ashirbad Yatra’.
Bora said, “When Sonowal was the President of BJP, he had promised that he would take action those who were involved in Louis Berger scam and Sharada Scam. So what happened to those promises now?”
He questioned, “What blessing Union Minister Sarbananda Sonowal is seeking? Is it a blessing for not fulfilling his promises?”
He added that the people of Majuli had elected Sonowal as an MLA so that he becomes the Chief Minister again but not only has he “failed” to become the CM, he has now belied the hopes of the people by giving up his MLA post.
“What new scheme of the central government is Sonowal bringing to the people of Majuli and Assam to seek the Jan Ashirbad Yatra?” he questioned.
