Guwahati, March 22:Assam BJP president Dilip Saikia has directed MLA Rupjyoti Kurmi to apologize to the people of Assam for his misconduct in the state Assembly on March 21.

In a strongly worded letter to Kurmi, Saikia expressed dismay over the MLA’s actions, calling them unbecoming of a seasoned politician and contrary to the party’s disciplined ethos.

The directive follows an incident in which Kurmi attempted to physically charge Independent MLA Akhil Gogoi during a heated Assembly debate. The episode, which unfolded within the Assembly’s hallowed chambers, has been widely condemned as a breach of parliamentary decorum and an affront to democratic discourse.

The letter underscored the BJP’s core values of discipline, restraint, and ideological integrity, stating: “The BJP is an organization guided and nurtured by strict discipline and a unique ideological framework. We uphold patience, restraint, and, when necessary, principled ideological battles as part of our ethos.”

While Kurmi had already apologized within the Assembly, Saikia deemed it insufficient. He directed the MLA to issue a formal apology to the people of Assam and warned him against repeating such behaviour.

Kurmi, the legislator from Mariani, made headlines on March 21 when he left his seat and aggressively approached Akhil Gogoi, disrupting proceedings and drawing widespread criticism.
