A political induction ceremony meant to bolster the Congress party in Assam has instead sparked a fierce debate across the state. On Sunday, January 11th, the Congress welcomed Rejaul Karim Sarkar into its fold during an event held at the Manabendra Sharma Complex in Guwahati. Sarkar, who previously served as the president of the All Assam Minorities Students Union (AAMSU), joined the party in the presence of senior leaders, including the Assam Pradesh Congress Committee President, Gaurav Gogoi.
