In a significant political development, the Assam cabinet has decided to refer the investigation of Congress MP Gaurav Gogoi's alleged links with Pakistan to the Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA). This decision underscores the gravity of the allegations, which have sparked considerable debate and concern within the state. The move to involve the MHA highlights the cabinet's resolve to ensure a thorough and impartial probe into the matter, given its potential implications for national security. The allegations against Gogoi, a prominent political figure and son of former Assam Chief Minister Tarun Gogoi, have created ripples across the political landscape. While details of the alleged links remain undisclosed, the cabinet's decision suggests that the issue requires a comprehensive investigation beyond state jurisdiction.

This development comes amid heightened political tensions in Assam, where the ruling party and the opposition are frequently at loggerheads. By referring the case to the MHA, the Assam cabinet seeks to mitigate any potential biases and ensure that the inquiry is conducted with the utmost professionalism. As the investigation unfolds, it is expected to capture national attention, with both political and public stakeholders keenly awaiting further details and outcomes.
