Assam CM Claims Rahul Gandhi Faces Arrest Post-Elections Over Violence Charges During ‘Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra'”<\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Without any initial complaint, the Assam police initiated a formal report against Congress member Rahul Gandhi and various other party figures for engaging in reckless violent behavior during the ‘Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra’ organized by the party on Tuesday. “An official report has been lodged. The inquiry will be carried out by a Special Investigation Team (SIT), and following the conclusion of the Lok Sabha elections, he (Gandhi) will be taken into custody,” Sarma remarked while attending an event in Nazira, located in the Sibsagar district.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Elections for the Lok Sabha are approaching in the coming months in the nation. Police Chief G P Singh announced that the case has been handed over to the Assam Criminal Investigation Department for comprehensive scrutiny under a Special Investigation Team that will be established by the Deputy Police Chief in charge of the CID.<\/span><\/div>\n
Sarma directed the DGP to initiate legal action against Gandhi for inciting the crowd to bypass barricades in an effort to infiltrate Guwahati during the Yatra on Tuesday, resulting in a clash with law enforcement. This altercation led to injuries of notable Congress figures such as state party chief Bhupen Bora, the opposition leader in the state legislature, and four police officers.<\/span><\/div>\n
\n

Subsequently, a formal complaint was lodged against members of the Congress party under various IPC sections, encompassing charges of criminal conspiracy, participating in an illegal gathering, rioting, attacking or exerting criminal force to obstruct public servants from performing their duties, destroying public property, and other offenses.<\/span><\/p>\n
