Rahul Gandhi attacks Assam govt over death of Dipanjal Das during anti-CAA protest

Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on March 31, remembered Dipanjal Das, who got killed in Guwahati during anti-CAA protests in 2019 and guaranteed that Citizenship (Amendment) Act, 2019 (CAA) will not be implemented in Assam.

"When I had come to meet family of Dipanjal Das (killed in Guwahati during anti-CAA protests in 2019) I felt that bullets weren't fired at one youth, it was fired at Assam.

It was attempted to murder Assam.

He wasn't just a youth, he was an idea.

He was Assam.

Dipanjal Das was a youth of Assam.

BJP government didn't do what it was supposed to.

They didn't provide him employment and when he stood for Assam peacefully, he was shot dead by BJP-RSS.

We give you 5 guarantees, the 1st being that we won't let CAA get implemented in Assam," said Rahul Gandhi.
