The Assam CM, who took strong exception to the PM's remarks about his state's capital, attacked Modi regarding Varanasi and Gandhinagar.
"PM Modi said that Guwahati is one of the dirtiest capitals in the country. The truth is that we're among top 10 capitals of India," he said.
"Gandhinagar & Varanasi are far behind Guwahati. We have done a lot without getting a penny from Swachh Bharat Abhiyan," Gogoi added.
