Manish Sisodia 'challenges' BJP

"An individual is talking about separating Assam from India and it is surprising that BJP is doing a press conference over that. You are the country's government, you should arrest him. If he is not arrested, it seems like you are making such an individual say such things to harm the country's environment. I am giving BJP 24 hours time to arrest this individual, else it will seem like he is your man and that you do not care about the country's security," he said to reporters.

Sharjeel Imam: 'Cut off Assam from India'

In the video, Sharjeel Imam says, "If we have 5 lakh organized people then we can permanently cut north-east from India or at least for one month. Put so much (unclear) on the road that they cannot even remove it for a month. It is our responsibility to isolate Assam from India, then only they will listen to us."
