‘Can’t make Assam bear more foreigners’: Dec 2024 cut-off date revives CAA anger in state
Protests in Assam against the Citizenship (Amendment) Act have resurfaced due to the government's new exemption order allowing minorities from neighboring countries to stay without visa and passport until December 31, 2024. The All Assam Students' Union and other groups are criticizing the BJP government for going against the Assam Accord. The state's Chief Minister has dismissed the concerns.
