Bhupen Bora

Congress's Assam unit president Bhupen Bora on Friday apologised for drawing a parallel between 'love jihad' and Lord Krishna's relationship with Rukmini while commenting on the triple murder case in Golaghat.

Criticising state Congress chief for his comment on the Golaghat triple murder case, Assam Chief Minister Himanta Sarma said on Thursday said that if a police case is filed against him for hurting religious sentiments, he will be arrested.

Congress president Sonia Gandhi on Saturday announced Bhupen Bora, a close aide of Rahul Gandhi, as Assam Pradesh Congress Committee president.

The first phase of the Lok Sabha elections in five seats in Assam began today on a peaceful note.

Entry of lottery baron Moni Kumar Subba, who is facing murder and rape cases, into the fray as an Independent is likely to make the contest in Tezpur an interesting one with the three-time former Congress MP banking on support of main opposition party AIUDF and the Nepali community to see him through.
