Assam Chief Minister Tarun Gogoi today said Prime Minister Narendra Modi is a "good magician" before elections only.

"Modi is more than P C Sarkar. He has got great magic power and super magical power. He is a very good marketeer for his party products and gives tall and false promises," Gogoi said.

"Modi is a big man, who has no relation with common people. He has relations with big countries like the US, China, Japan, Australia, UAE etc," Gogoi added.

The Chief minster also said Congress will win over 65 seats in the state's 126-seat Assembly in the forthcoming polls and will form a majority government.
 

After attending a party workers meet, Gogoi told reporters that the ruling party will be back to power by winning more than 65 seats and will form the government without help from any other party.

On campaigning of the party, he said Sonia Gandhi, Rahul Gandhi, Ghulam Nabi Azad, Sachin Tendulkar and a few film stars will visit the state in the coming days to appeal voters for casting their franchise in favour of Congress.

Regarding JNU Students' Union president Kanhaiya Kumar's possibility to campaign for Congress in the state, Gogoi said it is unlikely.
