Later, the Sivasagar MLA told journalists the Assam government spent Rs 5,85,233 each day for travel by helicopter. Gogoi slammed the government for not sharing the minute details and specific information pertaining to the helicopter rides despite requesting for the information through the queries. Gogoi stated that he wanted information on the places Sarma visited with dates, purposes and money spent on each ride.“It seems CM Himanta Biswa Sarma has had the highest number of helicopter rides among all CMs of Assam. He misused public funds by hiring helicopters for personal use,” the activist-turned-politician alleged.“From visiting places, attending marriages, campaigning to even giving a ride to his nephews in chartered planes and helicopters, the CM has enjoyed and is still enjoying public money,” Gogoi further alleged.He said nowhere in the minister’s reply was it mentioned that Sarma spent from his pocket to pay the fare of any of his helicopter rides. He urged the people of the state to take note of the issue and decide accordingly.
