Assam Police at Pawan Khera's Delhi residence after FIR by Himanta's wife

Pawan Khera had recently raised questions about the alleged foreign assets of Sarma’s wife, which led to a complaint and subsequent police action.

Assam Police team on Tuesday reached the Delhi residence of Congress leader Pawan Khera to question him in connection with a case involving allegations against Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma and his family.

According to PTI, the team notified Delhi Police upon arrival, after which local officers joined them and are assisting with the inquiry.

The move follows a political dispute sparked by Sarma’s claim that the Congress relied on “false information” from a Pakistani social media group to accuse his wife of holding multiple passports and possessing overseas assets. He described the allegations as an attempt to sway the Assam elections and said they constitute a punishable offence.
