CM Sarma also met with Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Sunday, to ensure that the Ministry of Home Affairs gives approval to submit a chargesheet since the incident happened in a foreign country. The approval could be given in the next 3-4 days, he added.
"If any incident happens in a foreign country, it is needed an approval from the Ministry of Home Affairs before submitting the chargesheet.

We will open Gaurav Gogoi incident after submission of the chargesheet of Zubeen Garg death case," the Assam CM said.
The Assam Chief Minister further said that, his government will bring a new bill on November 25 in the Assam assembly to ban polygamy in the state.
