On Friday afternoon at around 4 o’clock, the ASDC Youth Front and the KSA jointly burned an effigy of Congress leader Debabrata Saikia in Diphu. This action followed Saikia’s comments in the legislative assembly yesterday, where he criticized the eviction program of PGR-VGR lands in Kheroni as illegal and unconstitutional.
Today, both organizations actively protested against these remarks. Supporters of the two groups set ablaze the effigy of Debabrata Saikia, chanting slogans like “Down with Congress (I)”, “Congress Murdabad”, and “Go back Debabrata Saikia”, thereby staging a vehement protest.
