Assam Congress Chief Served Notice Over Property

Assam Congress Chief Served Notice Over Property

The BJP has refuted all allegations levelled by Mr Borah.

Guwahati:

Days after he questioned the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and the inauguration of its new office in Guwahati, Assam Congress chief Bhupen Borah has been slapped with a notice over his own property.

The Guwahati Municipal Corporation (GMC) has served notice to Mr Borah asking him to furnish a No Objection Certificate (NOC) and an 'Approved Plan' for his building located at Ghoramara in Guwahati within three days.

"A complaint has been received from Bhaskarjyoti Kumar and Hiren Bhatta, Bhetapara, Ghorama, Guwahati regarding your constructed building at Niribili Path. Ghoramara Chariali Guwahati-781040. You are hereby requested to produce the copy of No Objection Certificate and Approved Plan of your above-mentioned building undertaken at Niribili Path, Ghoramara Chariali, Guwahati. Your reply should reach the office of the undersigned within 03(three) days from the date of receipt of this letter," a statement from the GMC read.

"I don't own any property in Guwahati. The house where I live belongs to my wife. This notice is nothing but a political vendetta against me by the BJP-led government since I have been questioning them on the permission for their new office building which has been illegally built over government land," Mr Borah reacted.

The Assam Pradesh Congress Committee (APCC) alleges that the land on which the BJP has built its new party office was bought by the State Water Resource Department in 1967. BJP leader and mayor of GMC Mrigen Sarania has however refuted the allegations.

Washington: US Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin is likely to make a "full recovery" from prostate cancer and his prognosis is "excellent," two doctors said after he was seen at Walter Reed hospital for a follow-up appointment. Austin controversially kept US President Joe Biden in the dark about the cancer diagnosis for weeks, and did not inform either the commander-in-chief or Congress until days after he was hospitalized on January 1 for complications from his treatment. "Secretary Austin was seen today at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center for a scheduled post-prostatectomy surveillance appointment," the doctors said in a statement released by the Pentagon. "He continues to recover well and is expected to make a full recovery. Secretary Austin's prostate cancer was treated early and effectively, and his prognosis is excellent,...

North Korea Says It Tested New Strategic Cruise Missile

North Korea test-fired a new generation of strategic cruise missile on Wednesday. (Representational) Seoul: North Korea fired several cruise missiles towards the Yellow Sea on Wednesday, Seoul's military said, the latest in a series of tension-raising moves by the nuclear-armed state. Hours later, North Korea appeared to confirm the firing, saying it had carried out its first test of a new generation of strategic cruise missiles it is developing, the Pulhwasal-3-31.

"Our military detected several cruise missiles launched by North Korea towards the Yellow Sea at around 7:00 am today," the South Korean Joint Chiefs of Staff said in a statement. Unlike their ballistic counterparts, the testing of cruise missiles is not banned under current UN sanctions against Pyongyang. Cruise...
