Meanwhile, demanding to cancel the Cabinet decision over the APSC issue, the former ULFA-I militant said, "It proves the relationship between the former chief minister of Assam Sarbananda Sonowal and the BJP government is not going well and there is a fight among them."

Notably, the Assam Cabinet on November 24 decided to withdraw the language papers from the APSC syllabus for the ease of the candidates appearing for the said exam. Following the decision, several political parties, including the Assam Jatiya Parishad and Congress, stand against the government, demanding to withdraw its decision.
