    NEW DELHI: Assam chief ministerHimanta Biswa Sarma on Sunday launched a sharp attack on Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, calling him ‘anti-national’ and accusing him of supporting only Muslims from Bangladesh and Pakistan, as reported by news agency PTI. Speaking to reporters during a election campaign meeting in the Bodoland Territorial Region, Sarma also claimed that the Congress party does “not respect icons of Assam”, such as the Kamakhya temple and spiritual reformer Mahapurush Srimanta Sankardeva.“Rahul Gandhi is an anti-India person. He is only with Bangladeshi and Pakistani Muslims. He is not with Indian Hindus, not even with Indian Muslims. Rahul Gandhi is an anti-national personality,” Sarma alleged.He did not provide any specific reasons for labelling Rahul Gandhi, the current Leader of the Opposition in Lok Sabha, as anti-national.Just days before, Rahul Gandhi had criticized CM Sarma during his visit to Guwahati. Speaking at a party event in Chaygaon, Gandhi accused the Assam chief minister of acting like a ‘king’ and predicted that he would eventually end up in jail due to corruption charges. “He thinks he is a ‘raja’, but he will not be in power for long. He will end up in jail — not because Congress wants it, but because the people of Assam will send him there for corruption.”In response, Sarma dismissed the allegations with a strong reply with words and a hand gesture “Thenga” during a late-night press briefing. He stated that unlike Gandhi, he is a true son of Assam, raised by its soil and people. He accused the Congress of being stuck in outdated thinking and added, “The joke is on him.”
