Congress MP Gaurav Gogoi, son of former Chief Minister Assam Tarun Gogoi, admitted that as a student he once used a well-known phrase-in Delhi put the cop if he knew who his father was. But it did not work because he believes he was from the northeast.
“Do you know the phrase Delhi,” Tujhe Pat Hai Mera Baap Kaun Hai? “I used it once. He said the name in Delhi had no meaning, and explained,” People in Delhi don’t really know where the northeast is. If I were from Delhi, there might be some “respect”. “
Gogoi noted that he intentionally refrained the use of his father’s name in his favor. He said, “People who know me know that I have never been to my father’s background before,” he has emphasized his desire to be evaluated rather on the basis of his own success than on his family ties.
“I wanted to create my own identity”
“There is a different attention or treatment that comes when people find out who your father is. So I would just say he was working in the government. And if people push to know more, I would block the question. I wanted to create my own identity,” India quoted him today.
The discussion also plunged into the della elite circles, where the children of politicians and bureaucrats are often referred to as “baba log”, a term associated with inherited privileges. Gaurav Gogoi, however, remembered another experience. Shared, “I naively said” no, I don’t know him “when people raised my father because I really wanted to keep this department.”
He stressed when he bears the inheritance of a respected leader, he decided to create his own way, led by his surname, but his actions.
Meanwhile, according to PTI sources, the deputy leader of the party in the house, Gogoi will probably be charged with the opposition party on the first day of the debate in parliament, as the monsoon session continues. Both parties agreed to a 16 -hour debate in every house.
