Taking to his social media account, Gaurav Gogoi stated: “In the court of public opinion, receiving approval for a government grant of Rs 10 crore for a company linked to the Chief Minister is a moral offense. A Chief Minister should consider resigning, regardless of when or if the money was transferred. Granting approval crosses the ethical line.”
