GUWAHATI: Another attack during Rahul Gandhi's Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra. Congress General Secretary Jairam Ramesh alleged that BJP workers attacked his vehicle in Assam's Sunitpur.

"My vehicle was attacked a few minutes ago at Jumugurihat, Sunitpur by an unruly BJP crowd who also tore off the Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra stickers from the windshield. They threw water and shouted anti-BJNY slogans. But we kept our composure, waved to the hooligans and sped away. This is undoubtedly the Assam CM Himanta Biswa’s doing. We are not intimidated and will soldier on.", Jairam Ramesh posted on X with a video. Congress leaders said that their social media team was also attacked.
