Stones hurled at Bhanu in Sualkuchi

Ahead of the third phase of Lok Sabha Elections, unidentified miscreants threw stones at former bureaucrat and Assam Congress leader MGVK Bhanu at a public meeting in Sualkuchi on Saturday evening.

According to reports, miscreants threw stones at Bhanu, while he was speaking at the public meeting. He was campaigning for Congress' Gauhati Lok Sabha candidate Bobbeeta Sharma.

Notably, Assam Congress has appointed Bhanu as the election in-charge of Jalukbari assembly segment under Gauhati Parliamentary Constituency. Jalukbari is the assembly constituency of Assam Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma.

Miscreants also hurled stones at another Congress leader and Congress' Nowgong candidate Pradyut Bordoloi at the same meeting. On the other hand, some of the public also shouted slogans in support of Prime Minister Narendra Modi during the election rally.
