By AT News |

Akhil Gogoi seems to have landed in trouble. Kamrup (Metro) district administration is believed to have been prepared to arrest the KMSS president charging him with fuelling the situation where one of his activists sustained serious burn injury for self-immolation attempt.

According to allegations, Gogoi has been preparing the blueprint of the dangerous agitation for the last couple of days. That’s why, Gogoi can’t escape the responsibility.

Notably, Gogoi earlier threatened the government to launched a Pothoru-Ghat like episode in the history of Assam if the government fails to halt the land patta distribution.
