The team formally informed Delhi Police upon arrival, following which a local police team joined and is assisting in the proceedings, the source said.
The development comes amid a political tussle after Sarma alleged that the Congress used ”false information” sourced from a Pakistani social media group to level charges against his wife regarding multiple passports and overseas assets.
He termed the allegations an attempt to influence the Assam elections and a punishable offence.
