Gandhi claimed that despite this, he would not be scared.

He called Sarma the “most corrupt CM” of the nation and brought up a number of accusations pertaining to land and betel nut business.
“I have no idea where Himanta Biswa Sarma got the notion that he could scare me by registering police complaints. As many cases as you can, file them. I am not intimidated by you; file 25 cases more. I am not intimidated by BJP-RSS,” Gandhi said.

After instigating Congress workers to orchestrate violence , Rahul Gandhi (who is on a Bus Yatra) quietly came out of his fancy bus and fled the city in a small car to Hajo , his next destination.
Rahul has set a new standard for being a Darpok.
Ha ha
Guwahati Police on Tuesday filed a suo-moto complaint against Rahul Gandhi and other Congress leaders for wanton acts of violence in the state capital.
“The goal of the BJP-RSS is to eradicate Assamese history, culture, and language. We will not allow them to govern Assam out of Nagpur. Assam will be run from Assam only,” Rahul Gandhi mentioned.
According to the Congress leader, there is widespread corruption in Assam, and Himanta Biswa Sarma is the “most corrupt CM” in the nation.
"He (Sarma) takes your land while he is speaking to you. He corners the supari business while you're chewing betel nuts. He has also taken land in Kaziranga National Park,” Rahul Gandhi claimed.
He also took a potshot at Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Union Home Minister Amit Shah, saying that they have enough hatred in their heart.
NEW DELHI — Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge on Wednesday wrote to Home Minister Amit Shah about the security situation which Rahul Gandhi is facing in Assam, terming it as an ‘extremely unsafe situation’.
The Congress President said that Rahul Gandhi face serious security issues during the Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra in Assam.
“The Assam Police has systematically stood by and/or allowed BJP workers to come closer and closer to the convoy of Rahul Gandhi, breaching his security cordon, and endangering his physical security and that of his team,” he wrote.
He said that on the first day 1 of the Yatra's entry in Assam, January 18, the Assam Police was found protecting the posters of the BJP in Amguri, Sibsagar district instead of ensuring safe passage for the Yatra.
“On Day 2 of the Yatra in Assam, January 19, miscreants associated with the BJP were caught defacing and taking down posters and hoardings of the BJNY in Lakhimpur district. On January 21, as the Yatra returned to Assam via Arunachal Pradesh, another outrageous attack occurred on the Yatra in Sonitpur district,” he said.
He said that the local Superintendent of Police in Sonitpur District happens to be the brother of Chief Minister, Himanta Biswa Sarma.
“He watched to see that BJP workers attacked and manhandled the Indian National Congress' Social Media team, along with our General Secretary, Jairam Ramesh. Ramesh's car was attacked, while miscreants shouting anti-BJNY slogans, tearing off the BJNY sticker on the vehicle, and attempting to throw water on the passengers inside,” he wrote.
The letter further adds that on the same day in Sonitpur district, the BJP's district party workers approached and blocked Rahul Gandhi's convoy.
“The BJP's workers then physically assaulted the Assam Pradesh Congress Committee President Bhupen Borah, resulting in him bleeding profusely. On January 22, in Nagaon district, BJP workers blocked Rahul Gandhi's convoy, coming extremely close to him, and creating an extremely unsafe situation,” the Congress President wrote.
Kharge said that despite all of the instances and the ample evidence none of the miscreants have been arrested and in many instances investigation has not been initiated.
“As the risk increases, and as the Yatra proceeds as planned, we request your intervention to ensure that the Chief Minister of Assam and the Director General of Police, Assam ensure that no such untoward incident takes place which may lead to grave personal injury to Rahul Gandhi or any members of the Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra,” the Congress President wrote.
