It always tried to protect the pride and honour of the entire communities in the state”.

“Congress never works, or will work, for any particular caste, religion or region. The Congress led government in Assam could ensure a secured future of the state and its people” added the Congress President.   

Recalling Rajiv Gandhi the UPA Chairperson continued, “'Rajiv Gandhi had realized this 27 years ago when he signed the historic Assam Accord and we are still working according to its provisions. Our Prime Minister Manmohan Singh has been representing Assam in Rajya Sabha since last ten years and he shows special interest for the welfare of Assam. We know that Brahmaputra river is the lifeline of the state and an integral part of its cultural identity”.  “We also understand the hardship being faced by the people in crossing the river and we are soon going to have about four bridges across Brahmaputra” informed Sonia Gandhi.
