He also expressed his views on the Joint Parliamentary Committee (JPC)'s likely decision of not returning to Assam to consult the people of the State on the Citizenship Bill issue, Momin said that he is unaware about it and stated that previously the JPC visited Assam because of the leadership of CM Sonowal.

Speaking about the protest rally carried out by Assam BJP government's ally, Asom Gana Parishad (AGP), on Tuesday, the new chairperson said that AGP is not abiding by the norms of coalition partner in a government.

Reacting to AGP MLA Rekha Rani Das Boro's remarks against the BJP, Momin said that there's no 'Raavan' in BJP, in fact she is 'Surpanakha' (Raavan's sister).
