The political battle between Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma and Karnataka's Priyank Kharge has intensified, centering around accusations of hindering Assam's development. Sarma alleges that the Congress ecosystem wants to push Assamese youth towards militancy by opposing industrial growth in the state.
At the heart of this conflict is an assertion by Kharge that investments originally meant for Karnataka are being diverted to Assam and Gujarat, allegedly under pressure from the Centre. Sarma, vehemently opposing this view, has called Kharge's stance disrespectful to Assam and criticized the Congress for trying to monopolize industries in southern states.
This verbal sparring not only highlights inter-state tensions but also the broader issues of regional equity in India's industrial development. As both leaders exchange sharp words, the focus remains on creating economic opportunities across all Indian states.
