There is no better place than Piyoli Phukan Memorial- which evokes the patriotic fervour and sacrifice of Swahid Piyoli Phukan, to have flagged off our second #AxomBasaonAhok Yatra from.
We, too, will not give up our fight to Save Assam!#AssamBachao pic.twitter.com/ozC9AEHpdx— Jitendra Singh Alwar (@JitendraSAlwar) February 12, 2021
