DOOMDOOMA: The ‘Ek Asom Yatra’ that was undertaken by the Assam Jatiya Parishad a few days back reached the Doomdooma town of Assam on Sunday.
Led by the president of the party, Lurinjyoti Gogoi and secretary Jagadish Bhuyan, a large number of people came out to take part in the ‘Ek Asom Yatra’ of the Assam Jatiya Parishad. They visited multiple temples in Doomdooma and sought blessings from the deities. A large number of people bereaved the adverse weather to be a part of the event including hundreds of party members and workers.
Previously, Assam Jatiya Parishad (AJP) on Thursday took out the ‘Ek Asom Yatra’ in Dibrugarh for a united Assam. AJP president Lurinjyoti Gogoi led the ‘Ek Asom Yatra’ in Dibrugarh with thousands of his followers. The rally started from Chowkidingee field. The procession passed through the main routes of Dibrugarh seeking the support of local people for a united Assam. While addressing the rally, Lurinjyoti Gogoi said, “Chaolung Sukapha was the founder of the Ahom dynasty who created greater Assam. But now some communal forces are trying to divide Assam on the basis of communalism. We started the ‘Ek Asom Yatra’ from Dhubri and it will end at Sadiya. Our main objective is a united Assam. We want to establish communal harmony in Assam by uniting all castes and creed.”
Meanwhile, Lakhya Konwar, the spokesperson for the Assam state unit of the Bharatiya Janata Party, had called the ‘Ek Asom Yatra’ undertaken by the president of the Asom Jatiya Parishad a “laughable programme”. Lurinjyoti Gogoi has stated the initiative to travel from Dhubri in Lower Assam to Sadiya in Upper Assam. Addressing a press meet at the state head office of the party, he called this initiative completely politically motivated and an attempt to malign the hard work and image of the chief minister of the state. He said that at a time when the government is trying to bring unity between various communities residing in the state, Lurinjyoti Gogoi is saying that the party wants to create division.
