Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma publicly called Rahul Gandhi the Congress party’s “Eternal Youth Product”, sparking political chatter.
Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma, in a recent public statement, referred to Rahul Gandhi as the Congress party’s “Eternal Youth Product”. The remark was aimed at the opposition leader’s long‑standing presence in national politics.
Sarma’s comment came during a press interaction where he was asked about the Congress’s performance ahead of upcoming elections. He suggested that the party continues to rely on the same youthful image without offering fresh leadership.
The Congress has not issued an immediate response, but political analysts note that such personal jibes are typical of the heated pre‑election rhetoric in Indian politics.
