Congress targets Himanta after SC relief to Khera; Assam CM vows further probe

Congress urges Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma to reconsider his stand in the case against party spokesperson Pawan Khera after the Supreme Court granted Khera protection from arrest. The court observed that the allegations against Khera appeared politically motivated and influenced by political rivalry. Khera had accused Sarma's wife of possessing multiple foreign passports and undisclosed assets in the US, leading to his arrest on charges of forgery, cheating, and criminal defamation.
