Both leaders will also attend the meeting of the Pradesh Congress Committee (PCC) office bearers, MPs, and MLAs, as well as the Congress Workers' meeting
Gogoi asserted that the Congress in Assam will fight for justice for all those living under "a regime of fear and terror" and were facing persecution by the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) government
Accusing the Himanta Biswa Sarma government of "grabbing land of the poor", the Assam Congress president claimed that the Chief Minister has "donated" close to 17,000 acres of land to industrialists from outside without consulting the locals
Earlier on Tuesday, Sarma informed that a total of 1,19,548 bighas of land have been freed from encroachers in the ongoing eviction drive in the state
He also accused Trinamool Congress (TMC) of portraying his government's firm stance against illegal infiltration of Bangladeshi Muslims as anti-Bengali
