PM Modi said that people who are conspiring to defame India have stooped so low that they are not sparing even Indian tea. Assam produces more than half of India's tea.
Answering to Badruddin Ajmal's allegations, Himanta Biswa Sarma stated that Hindus do not attack Mosques, it is Ajmal's own ancestors who had attacked and destroyed Hindu temples.
Sarma stated that the bill does not concern private institutions. The government-funded madarsas will be converted to regular schools and only Quran teaching will be stopped.
