Earlier in the day, Minister of State for Home Kiren Rijiju had said Bangladeshi migrants are the cause of concern nationwide in relation to Assam. It must be noted that Giriraj Singh has made such controversial statement earlier as well, one of them was telling people who were critical of Narendra Modi that they should go to Pakistan once Modi was elected. The party was left embarrassed by the go-to-Pakistan remark by Giriraj Singh.
