This is a blatant disrespect of the people of India. It is in line with the new claim by some Bangladesh citizens that the north-east will eventually be part of Bangladesh.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p id=\"2\" class=\"story_para_2\">\u201cI have instructed Assam Police to register a case against the district committee of Sribhumi district and take action as per law,&#8221; the Chief Minister added.<\/p>\n<h4>BJP Attacks Congress<\/h4>\n<p id=\"3\" class=\"story_para_3\">Intensifying attack, BJP spokesperson Shehzad Poonawalla also slammed the Congress party over the incident and said that the opposition party loves Bangladeshi infiltrators, adding that they are putting \u201cvotebankniti\u2019 over \u201crashtraniti&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p id=\"4\" class=\"story_para_4\">\u201cAssam government has ordered the action against Congress party functionaries that has sung the Bangladeshi national anthem. Congress has not only joined hands with Pakistan but with Bangladesh too. Congress loves Bangladeshi infiltrators. They are endorsing the anti-India agenda, which is coming from there. Necessary action must be taken,&#8221; he added.<\/p>\n<h4>Congress Defends<\/h4>\n<p id=\"5\" class=\"story_para_5\">However, Congress MP Gaurav Gogoi defended the state unit leaders and said that \u2018Amar Sonar Bangla\u2019 was composed by Rabindranath Tagore, reflecting the sentiments of Bengali culture.<\/p>\n<p id=\"6\" class=\"story_para_6\">\u201cThe BJP has always insulted the Bengali language, Bengali culture and the people of Bengal. Their IT Cell has also insulted people of Bengal in the past. They have shown ignorance by not knowing the history of Rabindranath Tagore. I think the people of Bengal and Bengali-speaking people in different parts of the country have recognised that the BJP only uses them for votes,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atawrap\">\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atadetailwrp\">\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd ataname\"><span class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atthumb\"><\/p>\n<figure class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Mahima Joshi\" title=\"Mahima Joshi\" src=\"https:\/\/images.news18.com\/ibnlive\/uploads\/?impolicy=website&amp;width=60&amp;height=60\" class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd\"\/><\/figure>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd attitle\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/byline\/mahima-joshi-27792.html\" class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atamail\">Mahima Joshi<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Mahima Joshi, Sub-Editor at News18.com, works with the India and Breaking team.
