Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma has squarely blamed Congress leader Rahul Gandhi for inciting violence in the Paikan Reserve Forest area of Goalpara district, where a mob of alleged encroachers clashed with police and forest personnel, resulting in injuries to 21 officers and the death of one person.

In a statement posted on his official X (formerly Twitter) handle, the Chief Minister said, “Rahul Gandhi came to Assam and openly encouraged encroachers to occupy forest land. Emboldened by his reckless words, today a violent mob attacked our police and forest personnel while attempting to forcefully encroach upon the Paikan Reserve Forest.”

He further stated that in the line of duty, 21 police officers and forest guards sustained serious injuries during the confrontation. “Left with no choice, the police had to open fire to restore order—leading to the unfortunate death of one encroacher,” Sarma added.
