After Congress leader Rahul Gandhi recently claimed that Himanta Biswa Sarma will be in jail after the 2026 Assam polls, the Chief Minister was spotted showing his thumb.
Sarma made the gesture when during a late-night press briefing on Thursday, he was asked about Gandhi's remarks that "Himanta Biswa Sarma will be put in jail by the people of Assam”.
"Let me tell Rahul Gandhi one thing clearly: I am an Assamese, born in Assam. I didn't grow up drinking milk from a feeding bottle; I was fed my mother's milk. So, I'm showing Rahul Gandhi the 'burha anguli' (thumb). Even Congress members are upset with what he said here. They called me and said, 'Dada (elder brother), did he come here to say all this?' Therefore, I'm showing him a burha anguli,” the CM said in Assamese.
