New Delhi: Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma on Wednesday condemned the Baksa district jail violence, calling the incident “very unfortunate.”

“The incident is very unfortunate…Political parties are trying to instigate the public, which considers Zubeen Garg as its own. This is not in the interest of Assam. This will damage Assam for a long time. The manner in which anti-CAA protests damaged Assam for a long time, this will affect the state for a long time too. I appeal to the people – let those who have political motives do their work. But the common public should trust the judiciary. Assam Police will complete its investigation within the stipulated time and present all the accused of Zubeen before the Court,” CM Sarma told reporters.
