Soon after the video went viral, some Congress supporters and even sections of the media, including India Today and Times Now, claimed that the clip was actually from 2004.
Ravish Kumar, who claims to be a neutral journalist questioned the FIR against Congress leader Pawan Khera filed over his allegations against Riniki Bhuyan Sarma, the wife of Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma.
Gaurav Gogoi launched a veiled attack on Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma and his wife Riniki Bhuyan Sharma, days after claiming that CM Sarma’s wife possessed three passports, owns properties in Dubai, and has stashed ₹52,000 crore in the USA.
A purported video showing Pawan Khera hiding his face inside a car from media cameras has surfaced online, intensifying speculation that Khera is hiding in Congress-ruled Telangana out of fear of being arrested.
However, within a day, he made his decision public and confirmed that he would be joining the BJP, ahead of the upcoming Assembly elections in the state.
