The Office of Union Minister Sarbananda Sonowal has addressed media reports suggesting an internal conflict within the Assam BJP involving a letter purportedly from Sonowal to the party’s National President. The office has declared the letter, which allegedly demands a leadership change in Assam and accuses Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma, to be entirely fake and forged, featuring a counterfeit official letterhead and signature. This dissemination of fraudulent material is considered a serious criminal offense, encompassing forgery, impersonation, and misuse of government identity, aimed at misinforming the public and undermining a constitutional authority. An FIR has been filed at the Parliament Street Police Station in New Delhi, and law enforcement agencies have been urged to prioritize the investigation and pursue strict legal action against those responsible. Sonowal’s office firmly dismissed any claims of internal rivalry and urged the public and media to refrain from sharing unverified materials, advising them to consult only official sources for accurate information.
