Congratulation Ms S Gamlin. WE WOULD LIKE TO SEE THAT YOU PLEASE FOCUS ON ISSUES LIKE THE EXTRA ORDINARY NUMBER OF RAPES TAKING PLACE IN NCR. The Union Home Ministry in one year service , has failed to STOP this Horrible CRIME AGAINST Ordinary Citizen of NCR. WE hope and pray you give a "NEW DELHI" FREE of Rape CRIMES in less than 6 months. THE BJP Home Ministry has let us down several time with the multiple rape incidence. WE hope to tell the Home Ministry that RAPE IS ACTUALLY A CRIME and the Basic Right to be secure for every citizen of Delhi , Security is lacking in NCR which happens to be the Nation Capital. Ms S GAMLIN GIVE US A SECURE DELHI. JAI BHARAT

KMSS president Akhil Gogoi dared the NDA government at the Centre to prevent him from eating pork. Addressing a press conference in Guwahati on Monday, the KMSS leader said, "I am an Ahom. I would like to challenge the BJP-led government to stop me from eating pork. I won't listen to them." According to Gogoi, the beef controversy put BJP in a dicey position in Bihar where the party was thrashed in the assembly polls.  
Continuing his scathing attack on Prime Minister Narendra Modi, KMSS leader Akhil Gogoi charged BJP and RSS with trying to foment communal trouble in Assam to strike electoral advantages.

Will the Bihar poll verdict have any impact on Assam? The straight answer is No if anybody believes Kiren Rijiju. Talking to reporters at the sidelines of a function in Biswanath on Sunday, the Union minister said that Bihar's politics survives on castes.

Tezpur BJP MP Ram Prasad Sarma who attended the function also ruled out the Bihar impact on Assam. He said that BJP has every chance to form the next government in Dispur.
Hours after JD(U) and RJD took a huge lead in the Bihar assembly polls, Assam Chief minister Tarun Gogoi said that the Bihar verdict would help Congress win the next assembly polls with flying colours. Talking to reporters in Guwahati, Gogoi said that the Bihar verdict is a victory for secular forces. The voters have, beyond doubt, proved that communal forces have no place in democracy. He said that this time Congress tally would improve further. "Those who took advantage from me. They took my help for development now have been slamming me alleging backwardness," said Gogoi.
