Ahead of the assembly polls in Assam, a war of words between the political parties has started, and they have been accusing each other over different issues.
All India United Democratic Front (AIUDF) MLA, Rafiqul Islam, said that the BJP-led government in Assam is anti-Muslim and anti-Assamese people .
Accusing the saffron party and the state government of failing in its commitment to protect Jati, Mati and Bheti (community, land and base), the AIUDF MLA said that despite protests against the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) by the people of Assam, the BJP-led government now wants to give Indian citizenship to illegal Hindu people from Bangladesh.
GUWAHATI: Hundreds of people staged protests against the Centre’s Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) in the capital city on Saturday exactly a year after five persons were killed during the protests.
Protesters vowed to intensify the agitation if the Centre went ahead to implement the CAA, which has been challenged by over 140 petitions in the apex court. Deafening roars of “ami CAA namanu (we will not accept CAA)” reverberated across the city and the state as the day saw people organizing bike rallies in protest against CAA and people from Sadiya to Dhubri paid tributes to five people who died on December 12 last year during protests against the Act.
