Assam won't allow misunderstanding among people: Gogoi

Assam Chief Minister Tarun Gogoi today said the state will not allow anti-social elements to create misunderstandings among its people in the name of foreign nationals, religion, language or caste.
Speaking on the occasion of celebrating the second anniversary of his government's third tenure, Gogoi said: "We will not allow the unwanted anti-social elements to create any misunderstanding. Some elements are trying to create problem here."
Assam has always been a peaceful state and it will continue to remain so, he added.
Gogoi also said the militancy issue affecting the state cannot be solved through arms and the government is working on to solve it through a democratic process.

"We want to eliminate poverty and unemployment. We also want to get rid of illiteracy. These are our prime objective," he added.

The Prime Minister in a message had said Assam has seen all round progress and development during the third consecutive term of the Congress government.
