As part of the celebration, a mega rally was taken out from the Swahid Bhavan to the Rajiv Bhavan, carrying placards with the slogan ‘Save Constitution, Save Country.’

Addressing a gathering at the Rajiv Bhavan, Assam Pradesh Congress Committee President Gaurav Gogoi alleged that the current BJP government in Assam was trying to destroy democracy and establish a monarchy.

Gogoi urged the people to utilize government schemes and benefits while rejecting the BJP’s attempts to politicize them. He also slammed the Chief Minister, Dr Himanta Biswa Sarma, for promoting liquor shops in the state while shutting down educational institutions.
