‘Assam CM should be arrested’, Congress accuses of links with extremists, Sarma said – it is a lie

Manipur Violence: Despite the presence of armed forces in Manipur, which is burning in the fire of ethnic violence, the situation still remains tense. Meanwhile, Assam CM Himanta Biswa Sarma on Tuesday (June 20) rejected the allegations of links being made against him with the Kuki extremist group. Making a political attack on the Congress, he said that the allegations leveled against him by the party are false.

This statement of Himanta Biswa Sarma has come on the allegations of Assam Pradesh Mahila Congress President Meera Borthakur Goswami. Goswami had alleged that a group of Kuki militants had written a letter to Union Home Minister Amit Shah, stating that he had helped the BJP in the 2017 Manipur assembly elections.

Himanta Biswa Sarma called the allegations baseless
In a statement issued by the CM of Assam, it has been said that some baseless allegations of links with some underground leaders of Manipur have been made through social media posts recently. He said that it is reiterated that we are not related to any such element. According to a PTI report, Meera Borthakur Goswami has submitted a memorandum regarding this allegation to the state DGP. In which it has been demanded that these allegations should be investigated in depth.

According to a report in India Today NE, SS Haokip, chairman of the United Kuki Liberation Front (UKLF), wrote a letter to Amit Shah in 2019. The letter claimed that Himanta Biswa Sarma and Rammadhav had taken help from some Kuki groups in the 2017 Manipur elections. At that time only Sarma and Madhav were looking after the work of the north-eastern states.

Which Kuki extremist wrote the letter?
In this letter written to Amit Shah, Haokip had demanded the removal of his name from a case of arms procurement going on against him. The rebel leader had cited the help given in the past for this. UKLF is an armed organization with which there is a suspension of operation agreement.

Targeting the Congress, Himanta Biswa Sarma said that this agreement was done with the Kuki, Jomi and Hamar communities in 2008, when the Congress was in power. He said that the appeal being run on social media is a letter written by the chairman of a group, which is related to a 2018 arms purchase case. He has made this appeal to save himself. Linking it to anyone is baseless.

Congress demands the arrest of the CM of Assam
Assam Congress President Bhupen Borah demanded that Himanta Biswa Sarma should be arrested under NSA for taking help of Kuki militants. According to a PTI report, Sarma had met representatives of some militant organizations of the Kuki community on June 11 during his visit to Manipur.
