Himanta Questions Gogoi's 2013 Pakistan Visit, Cites Visa Discrepancies for Taxila

  • Assam CM Himanta Biswa Sarma questioned Congress leader Gaurav Gogoi's 2013 visit to Taxila, Pakistan, citing visa limitations.
  • Sarma alleged Gogoi's visa only permitted travel to Lahore, Karachi, and Islamabad, not Rawalpindi district where Taxila is located.
  • He raised concerns about who facilitated Gogoi's movement to Taxila, a restricted area housing Pakistan Army's GHQ, without proper authorization.
  • BJP spokesperson Shehzad Poonawala echoed concerns, stating Taxila must be explicitly mentioned on a visa for an Indian citizen to visit.
  • Gaurav Gogoi stated his wife visited Pakistan for work and he accompanied her, adding he would explore legal measures against Sarma.
