Himanta writes ‘beyond Bengal, we North east exist’ in reply to RaGa’s ‘From Gujarat to West Bengal’ tweet

Feb. 10: Taking a dig at the Narendra Modi-led BJP government, Rahul Gandhi tweeted about the concept of ‘unity in diversity’, a basic characteristic of Indian Union. Upholding the spirit of ‘unity in diversity’ of Indian Union, Rahul Gandhi tweeted:

“There is strength in our Union.

Our Union of Cultures.
Our Union of Diversity.
Our Union of Languages.
Our Union of People.
Our Union of States.

From Kashmir to Kerala. From Gujarat to West Bengal. India is beautiful in all its colours.

Don’t insult the spirit of India.”

Just within 3 hours of the tweet by Rahul Gandhi, Assam Chief Minister Dr Himanta Biswa Sarma came out with a sharp sharp criticism of he Gandhi scion. Dr Sarma in a reply tweet wrote, “India is far beyond just a union. We are a proud Nation. Bharat cannot be held hostage to your tukde tukde philosophy What is your problem with Nation, Nationality and Nationalism.?”

Well, Himanta Biswa just did not stop there. While describing Indian Union, Rahul Gandi wrote “From Kashmir to Kerala. From Gujarat to West Bengal. India is beautiful in all its colours.” Himanta was quick to rectify Rahul Gandhi’s knowledge of geographical boundary of Indian Union. Himanta Biswa addressed Rahul Gandhi and wrote, “And hello- beyond Bengal, we North east exist.”

India is far beyond just a union. We are a proud Nation.

Bharat cannot be held hostage to your tukde tukde philosophy

What is your problem with Nation, Nationality and Nationalism.?

And hello- beyond Bengal, we North east exist. https://t.co/vKfpiIhz9F
