PM Modi Attacks Congress: Assam Nearly Separated, Bordoloi Saved It; Unveils Key Projects

• PM Modi accused Congress of nearly separating Assam from India pre-Independence, crediting Gopinath Bordoloi for thwarting the plan to merge it with East Pakistan.
• He alleged Congress repeatedly compromised Assam’s identity post-Independence through vote-bank politics, religious appeasement, and encouraging infiltration, altering demography.
• PM Modi praised CM Himanta Biswa Sarma's government for decisively reclaiming land and resources from illegal and anti-national encroachments.
• He inaugurated the new Rs 4,000 crore nature-inspired terminal at Lokapriya Gopinath Bardoloi International Airport, designed to boost regional connectivity and tourism.
• PM Modi's visit includes paying tribute to 1979 Assam Movement martyrs, 'Pariksha pe Charcha' with students, and laying the foundation for a Rs 12,000 crore ammonia-urea plant in Namrup.

Why It Matters: PM Modi attacked Congress over Assam's history, hailed Bordoloi, and launched major development projects.
