BJP led Assam Govt drops Rajiv Gandhi name from Orang National Park

Guwahati : The BJP-led Assam government has dropped the name of former Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi from Orang National Park.

“Rajiv Gandhi Orang National Park to be renamed as Orang National Park, taking cognizance of the demands of Adivasi and tea tribe communities,” Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma tweeted while sharing the decisions of the Assam Cabinet.

Reacting to the decision of the Assam Cabinet, Congress leader and Kaliabor MP Gaurav Gogoi on his Twitter handle said if the Congress forms the next government in Assam it would cancel the decision of the BJP government.

“When the next Congress Government is formed in the state of Assam, on the first day we will cancel the decision of the BJP government to remove the name of former Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi from the Orang National Park. Indian culture teaches us to respect martyrs unlike RSS,” Gaurav Gogoi tweeted.
