Pawan Khera, a Congress leader, has approached the Telangana High Court for anticipatory bail concerning a First Information Report (FIR) filed against him in Assam. The allegations arose after Khera accused Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma and his wife, Riniki Bhuyan Sharma, of misconduct during a press conference in New Delhi. In response, Riniki Bhuyan Sharma filed the FIR, leading to police searches at Khera's residence. Sarma criticized Khera for allegedly fleeing to Hyderabad following the police action. The Congress party has expressed solidarity with Khera, condemning the actions of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) as an attack on democracy. As the political climate heats up, Assam is set to hold elections tomorrow, with results expected on May 4.
