In a sharp attack, Union Home Minister Amit Shah accused the Congress party of enabling illegal infiltration in Assam, fundamentally altering the state's demographics. Addressing a gathering in Kamrup, Shah declared that the BJP would rectify what he termed as Congress's 'sin' of allowing infiltrators.

Shah questioned Congress's accountability for districts like Dhubri, Barpeta, Morigaon, Nagaon, and Goalpara, now dominated by Muslim-majority populations. He emphasized the BJP's commitment to resolving these issues, likening it to successfully curbing Naxalism.

The minister noted the historic significance of the CRPF Day Parade being held in Assam for the first time, underscoring the Northeast's growing importance in national affairs. Earlier, Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar detailed voter measures ahead of Assam's 2026 state elections.
