Key Statements
In the video, the residents extend a warm invitation to the Assam Chief Minister to visit their village and the Moncombu Sri Bhagavathy Kshetra. Kerala BJP president Rajeev Chandrasekhar then joined the exchange, welcoming Sarma to the state and using the occasion to contrast the BJP’s governance model with Kerala’s traditional political fronts. Replying to Rajeev, the Assam Chief Minister reiterated his intent to visit Kerala and placed trust on BJPs development aspirations for Keralam.
Because of their support for the BJP and believed the Assam Chief Minister could help bring attention to their problems, he also claimed that the villagers told him they faced difficulties.
Barooah said some local residents became excited when they learnt that he was from Assam, the state governed by Himanta Biswa Sarma. Responding to Barooah’s post on X, the Assam Chief Minister said he would like to visit the temple in the coming days. He said people in Kerala were watching “with great interest” what he described as the transformation of states such as Assam under the BJP-led NDA’s “double-engine” government, particularly in infrastructure, innovation and opportunities for young people. “Looking forward to visiting soon, Rajeev ji (sic)” he replied.
