A clash unfolded in Guwahati as nearly 5,000 Congress workers, including Rahul Gandhi, were halted by police during the restart of the 'Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra' in Assam. Accusing the Assam government of hindering their march, the confrontation led to police using lathi-charge to disperse the gathering. Rahul Gandhi emphasized the party's commitment to maintaining order while alleging that the Union Home Minister instructed the CM to prevent his meeting with students. He criticized restrictions on language and history, asserting efforts to "enslave" North East and Indian students. Tensions rise in the ongoing political face-off.
