Digital Desk: The President of the Assam Pradesh Congress Committee (APCC), Bhupen Borah has filed a Rs. 10 crore defamation case against Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma.

Following this statement, the senior Congress leader stated that he would shortly file a defamation suit.
In response to the CM's remarks, Borah charged that he was distorting the facts by making remarks of this nature.
"To make the media believe that I am on a true path, I will file a defamation suit against Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma tomorrow," Borah stated in response to questions about the matter.
He asserted that Himanta Biswa Sarma soften use the strategy of making "baseless" claims to divert attention from the actual issues.
Furthermore, Borah asserted that he had no motive to join the BJP.
