The Congress and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) have exchanged several barbs amid the high-stake contest in Assam, where the assembly elections are scheduled on April 9.
Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi accused the Himanta Biswa Sarma government of being corrupt and alleged a 'mafia rule' in the state.
Priyanka Gandhi also raised Zubeen Garg's death and said seeking justice for a respected figure is a political duty rather than opportunism.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi made an infiltrator pitch and accused the Congress of being the 'root cause of corruption'.
Modi alleged that the Congress, if it comes to power in Assam, will bring in a law to protect infiltrators.
Addressing a rally in Gogamukh in Dhemaji, the PM claimed that the Congress aims to 'turn the majority community into a minority and create a permanent vote bank of infiltrators'.
Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi lambasted the Assam government and accused it of corruption and alleged the state government of operating under 'mafia and syndicate rule'.
Priyanka Gandhi said that the people of Assam were tired of the BJP government and wanted the state to rise.
