Assam minister Himanta Biswa Sarma’s video as “False”

Himanta Biswa Sarma has been
caught for spreading a “False” video on social media.
Himanta Biswa Sarma on
Friday posted a video on Facebook and Twitter claiming ‘Pakistan zindabad’
slogans were raised by AIUDF supporters on the arrival of party chief Badruddin
Ajmal at Silchar Airport.
Himanta Biswa Sarma,
had tweeted: “Look at the brazenness of these fundamentalists anti-national
people who are shouting PAKISTAN ZINDABAD while they welcome MP
@BadruddinAjmal. This thoroughly exposes @INCIndia which is encouraging such
forces by forging an alliance. We shall fight them tooth & nail.”
Facebook on Saturday
marked the video posted by Himanta Biswa Sarma’s as “False Information”, and
said the video was checked by independent fact-checkers, and found it “False”.
On Friday evening, an Indian
non-profit fact checking website had also reported the video posted by Himanta
Biswa Sarma as “False”.
BJP's Lok Sabha Member
Rajdeep Roy and Vishwa Hindu Parishad leader Mithun Nath have filed two
separate cases at the Silchar police station against alleged pro-Pakistan
sloganeering.
Debabrata Saikia, and
Congress MP Gaurav Gogoi had demanded that if anyone was actually raised
“Pakistan Zindabad” slogan at Silchar airport, they should be arrested
immediately.
The AIUDF also issued a
press statement immediately after Himanta Biswa Sarma’s video went viral on
social media.
The AIUDF described the
video as “cheap politics” by the BJP. The party claimed Himanta Biswa Sarma
distorted the slogan ‘Aziz Khan Zindabad’ into ‘Pakistan Zindabad’.
Aziz Ahmed Khan is an MLA
of AIUDF, and represents the Karimganj South Assembly constituency.
Even after being caught on
the wrong foot by Facebook and Alt News, Himanta Biswa Sarma is yet to admit
that the video which he had uploaded was “False”.
Assam Finance and Health
Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma on Friday said pro-Pakistan sloganeering carried
out at the state's Silchar airport would be probed. Police officials in
Guwahati and Silchar later confirmed that they were investigating the matter.
Talking to the media, the Minister said that the same set of people earlier also had indulged in similar acts in Assam and had resumed their campaign on religious lines in view of the Assembly elections next year.
Himanta Biswa Sarma says
"I have asked the police to take actions against all those who raised
slogans in favour of Pakistan. Law will take its own course," Sarma said
in Guwahati.
The All India United
Democratic Front (AIUDF), which found itself at the centre of the controversy,
denied the charge that its supporters shouted such slogans and dubbed it a
"cheap tactics of the BJP".
The AIUDF also tweeted:
"... on the cheap politics by BJP; how they, along with a section of the
media distorted the slogan 'Aziz Khan zindabad' into 'Pakistan zindabad'."
All India Congress
Committee General Secretary in-charge of Assam affairs, Jitendra Singh,
demanded a high-level probe into the matter.
According to the Congress
leader, Assam is witnessing a fast religious demographic change and it needs to
be controlled.
Himanta Biswa Sarma is
famous for his false Statements, In 2004 , Sarma called Modi a “terrorist” and
said the blood of Muslims flows through the water pipes in Gujarat.
FACT-CHECK

BOOM analysed several
videos uploaded on social media from the same event and found that the crowd
shouted Aziz bhai and Aziz Khan zindabad to welcome MLA Aziz Khan.
Some of the crowded party
workers also shouted Ajmal bhai zindabad and AIUDF zindabad to show support to
Badruddin Ajmal and the party. None of the videos had the 'Pakistan Zindabad'
slogans being raised.
The event is from November

Silchar airport for a four-day visit in Bakar valley with other party members
including Karimganj MLA Aziz Khan and was welcomed by supporters.
Aziz Ahmed Khan is an
AIUDF Member of Legislative assembly (MLA) from Karimganj South Vidhan Sabha
constituency in Assam which is the reason for 'Aziz bhai zindabad' and Aziz
Khan zindabad' slogans being raised. The other slogans of Ajmal bhai zindabad
and AIUDF zindabad were raised for Ajmal and the party.
