Sarma said that he would file the case after Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s visit to Assam on April 14.
Chief Minister of Assam, Himanta Biswa Sarma, on Sunday said he would file a defamation case against Congress’ Rahul Gandhi over his tweet on ‘Adani’.
“Whatever Rahul Gandhi has tweeted is defamatory and once PM Modi goes back from Assam, a case will be filed against Gandhi after April 14,” mentioned the Assam Chief Minister.
It may be noted that taking to Twitter, Gandhi has taken names of former Congress leaders including Himanta Biswa Sarma, Jyotiraditya Schindia, Gulam Nabi Azad, Anil Antony and Kiran Reddy and connected them with Adani.

Sarma, responding to Gandhi’s tweet, had earlier said, “It was our decency to have never asked you, on where have you concealed the proceeds of crime from the Bofors and National Herald Scams. And how you allowed Ottavio Quattrocchi to escape the clutches of Indian justice multiple times. Anyway, we will meet in the Court of Law.”
