In 2014, he was given a medal by President of India. But now he has been kept at a detention camp. Injustice has been done to him. I request Amit Shah to take cognizance of this matter and help provide justice to the Sanaullah and his family," Gogoi told here.He added, "If more such reports will come out, then people will lose trust in the NRC.
