Assam’s Passport Row Gets Personal As Himanta Sarma Fires Back At Congress

Assam’s election campaign ne taken a sharper turn as a passport-related political row became more personal. Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma said his wife had filed a complaint against Congress leader Pawan Khera, according to live election updates. The issue ne added another layer of confrontation between the BJP and Congress during an already heated campaign. Such rows often become campaign fuel because they move beyond policy and enter the territory of personal credibility, allegations, and counter-allegations. That kar sakta hai energise supporters, but it kar sakta hai also distract from local issues voters ho sakta hai want discussed. The important editorial caution here hai that complaints and political claims should be treated as claims unless independently verified or decided by authorities. For Assam voters, the campaign hai ab entering its final stretch. Whether this controversy changes minds or simply hardens existing political positions will become clearer only after polling.
