Guwahati, Sept 13: The Twitter war between Congress MP Gaurav Gogoi and Assam chief minister Himanta Biswa Sarma has caught the attention of the public after it was alleged that the Assam CM was using his influence to help his wife in the 10 crore-worth Kisan Sampada scam.
It started when Gaurav Gogoi taking to X wrote, “PM Modi launched the Kisan Sampada scheme to double the income of farmers of India. But in Assam, Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma used his influence to help his wife’s firm get Rs 10 crore as part of credit linked subsidy. Are Central government schemes meant to enrich BJP”.
Replying to Congress MP Gaurav Gogoi, Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma wrote on X (formerly known as Twitter), “I would like to clarify that neither my wife nor the company she is associated with has ever received any financial subsidies from the Government of India”.
The opposition parties have again trained their guns on Assam chief minister Himanta Biswa Sarma over allegations of “Kisan Sampada scam” by his wife and entrepreneur Riniki Bhuyan Sarma.
This comes after Assam CM’s wife Riniki Bhuyan Sarma received Rs 10 crore as a subsidy from the ministry of food processing, in the name of her company – Pride East Entertainment Pvt Ltd.
For the convenience of the Hon’ble Chief Minister I am attaching the link to the website of the Ministry of Food Processing. It shows the list of companies and promoters who have received the Rs 10 crore government subsidy. Please see serial 10.https://t.co/rR2m9PH8DX https://t.co/O9krRaDSRW
