“In overall health index, Assam's position in India is 3rd compared to 13th of Gujarat. In education, our ranking is 13th, while Gujarat's position is 20th,” he claimed.
Gogoi also claimed that the number of crimes in his state was less than Gujarat.
He said that Assam was affected by problems like insurgency, illegal migrants issue, flood and economic backwardness, which Gujarat did not encounter.
“Modi was never in a bad financial position. Gujarat was always comfortable since independence. When I took over, Assam's economy was bankrupt, there was no salary, law and order was bad. But we have done good from there,” Gogoi said.
He also said Assam government took the burden of medical expenses of Bhupen Hazarika, despite him being a BJP Lok Sabha member.
