Guwahati: Assam Jatiya Parishad (AJP) candidate Kunki Chowdhury’s mother, Sujata Gurung Chowdhury, has filed a complaint with the National Commission for Women (NCW) against Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma, alleging that he made “false, baseless and malicious” statements during campaigning for the Assembly polls.
In her complaint filed on April 11, 2026, the senior Chowdhury claimed that Mr. Sarma’s statements were “intended to defame” her and “politically target” the Assam Jatiya Parishad candidate for Guwahati Central and demanded legal action against the CM for “inciting” people with “fake propaganda”. Mr. Sarma has not yet made any remarks on the complaint against him.
On April 2, the BJP leader claimed that Sujata Gurung Chowdhury had shared social media posts related to beef consumption, made remarks offensive to certain sections of society and supported Pakistan, thereby hurting the sentiments of ‘Sanatani’ people.
Repeating the same allegations in the subsequent campaigning phase, Mr. Sarma even said he would take action against Kunki’s parents for allegedly consuming beef and uploading a picture of it on social media. – PTI
