While he was addressing the crowd, he received a phone call when MLA Animesh Debbarma handed over the phone to him.

Following the phone conversation, Pradyot said that he needed to go to Delhi as the Central government had asked him to come there.

Pradyot also claimed that he would travel to Delhi on an empty stomach while continuing his hunger strike. He declared his intention that he would not consume anything until he receives positive response.
