In Assam, the Panchayat Aaj Tak event has kicked off ahead of the upcoming assembly elections, focusing on the state's political and social issues along with electoral strategies. Political leaders from various parties are participating in discussions about the election and its implications for the state. Congress leader Pawan Khera took the stage to express the party's commitment to standing firmly with the people of Assam and emphasized that they are fighting this election with a complete strategy in mind.

Khera stated that the Congress team is led by Gaurav Gogoi, who is running against the incumbent Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma on behalf of the people of Assam. He highlighted the collective strength of the Congress party, asserting that they are not alone in this fight against the ruling BJP government. Khera's remarks aimed to bolster the party's position by showcasing their unity and strategic approach to winning the upcoming elections.

Attacking the BJP government, Khera suggested that instead of holding a 'Jana Aashirwad Yatra' (People's Blessing Journey), the government ought to organize a 'Maafi Yatra' (Forgiveness Journey) due to their repeated broken promises to the people of Assam. He pointed out that the indigenous community has yet to receive Scheduled Tribe status, which he described as another form of deception. Khera's statements reflect a strong critique of the current government and aim to resonate with the electorate's sentiments leading up to the polls.
