Guwahati (Assam) [India], September 10 (ANI): The Special Investigation Team (SIT) constituted by the Assam government to probe the alleged links of Congress MP Gaurav Gogoi with Pakistan on Wednesday submitted its report to Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma.
According to an official statement, the Special Investigation Team (SIT), constituted by the state government to probe the alleged links of MP Gaurav Gogoi with Pakistan, on Wednesday, formally submitted its report to Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma. The report was handed over at Lok Sewa Bhawan in the presence of SIT members Munna Prasad Gupta, Rosie Kalita, Pranabjyoti Goswami and Maitrayee Deka.
In a post on X, CM Sarma said that the Assam Cabinet had constituted the SIT to investigate the 'anti-India activities' and 'have unearthed startling facts.'
He wrote, 'On 17th February, 2025, the Assam Cabinet constituted a Special Investigation Team (SIT) to investigate the anti-India activities of one Pakistani national, Ali Tauqeer Sheikh, and his associates. During the course of this exhaustive investigation, the SIT has unearthed startling facts which point towards a larger conspiracy aimed at undermining the sovereignty of our nation.
He further said that the inquiry also shed light on how Pakistan's Ministry of Interior facilitated the visit of an Assam MP to the neighbouring country.
He wrote, 'The SIT has also established the involvement of a British national - who is also married to an Indian Member of Parliament - in the larger nefarious activities of Ali Tauqeer Sheikh. Furthermore, the investigation also sheds light on how the Ministry of Interior, Govt of Pakistan, facilitated the visit of an Hon'ble Member of Parliament from Assam in their country.'
The Chief Minister added that the state government will now examine the SIT's findings in detail
'The Assam Government will now examine the report of the SIT in detail and place it before the State Cabinet. Once the matter is discussed in the Cabinet, the information gathered during the enquiry will be made public,' the Assam CM wrote on X.
CM Sarma has repeatedly levelled allegations against Congress leader Gogoi. Going back in May this year, Assam Chief Minister described him as a 'deep-rooted Pakistani agent.' The Assam Chief Minister claimed that Gogoi had only revealed 10 per cent about his visit to Pakistan and that he and his wife are deeply involved in anti-India activities.
The Congress leader has rejected allegations made by the Chief Minister against him and said that these are all just 'lies and slander'.
In August, Congress MP Gaurav Gogoi also raised questions on the Himanta Biswa Sarma-led state government and sought to know why, despite the BJP government being in power for nearly a decade, there were infiltrators entering the State. The Congress leader stated that his party's stance was clear- no Bangladeshi should be illegally residing in the state.
'The Congress party's position is clear, no Bangladeshi should stay illegally in Assam. It is the duty of both the Assam government and the Central government to ensure this. They have been in power for 10 years, and with border security under their watch, if infiltrators are still coming, then who is responsible?' Gogoi asked. (ANI)
