When Assam protests the CAA, Chief Minister Himanta Sarma vows he “will resign if” on the NRC

Published

on

Assam chief minister Himanta Biswa Sarma said on Tuesday that he will step down first, even if one person who hasn’t applied for the state’s National Register of Citizens (NRC) is granted citizenship. This comes a day after protests broke out throughout the state in response to the Center’s notification of the controversial Citizenship (Amendment) Act, 2019 (CAA), according to news agency PTI.

Citizenship for undocumented non-Muslim migrants from Afghanistan, Bangladesh, and Pakistan is made possible by the CAA, 2019.

Himanta Sarma reportedly declared, “I am a son of Assam and I will be the first to resign if a single person who has not applied for the NRC in the state gets citizenship,” according to PTI, during a program in Sivasagar.

The demonstrators assert that after the CAA is put into effect, lakhs of individuals would be able to enter the state. “I’ll be the first to protest if this happens,” the chief minister of Assam declared.

Assamese protests against the CAA’s implementation broke out, burning copies of the law along with effigies of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Home Minister Amit Shah, according to news agency PTI.

To express their opposition to the CAA’s implementation, the Congress set copies of the law on fire in several locations throughout the district, and the Asom Jatiyatabadi Yuba Chatra Parishad (AJYCP) set fire to the prime minister’s and the home minister’s effigies in Lakhimpur.

According to Sarma, citizenship will not be granted to anybody who arrived in India after 2014, and their candidate pool will be “negligible.”

Individuals do not like to identify as outsiders. Three districts in the Barak Valley may submit 50,000–60,000 applications, but the number in the Brahmaputra Valley districts would be insignificant, according to the chief minister.

Sarma stated that the CAA is not new because it was already implemented and that “the time has come for application on the portal.”

The chief minister of Assam said, “The data on the portal will speak now, and it will become clear whether the claims of those opposing the Act stand factually correct or not.”

According to him, Assamese folks would find out within a month whether thousands or lakhs of individuals are requesting to become citizens of the state.

According to the chief minister, “enough has been said on CAA and now it is time to prove the claims,” but he respects both the protestors and the CAA supporters.

According to Sarma, “it will also be evident who was accountable for the five fatalities that occurred during the violent protests in 2019.”

The federal government will now begin awarding Indian nationality to persecuted non-Muslim migrants from Bangladesh, Pakistan, and Afghanistan who arrived in India up until December 31, 2014, in accordance with the CAA regulations.

These consist of Christians, Parsis, Buddhists, Jains, Sikhs, and Hindus. Since regulations had not been announced until now, the law could not go into effect.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi will inaugurate Grameen Bharat Mahotsav 2025 on Saturday morning at Bharat Mandapam in Delhi. He will also address the gathering on the occasion.

Celebrating Rural India’s entrepreneurial spirit and cultural heritage, the Mahotsav will be held from 4 to 9 January with the theme ‘Building a Resilient Rural India for a Viksit Bharat 2047’.

The Mahotsav, through various discussions, workshops and masterclasses, aims to enhance rural infrastructure, create self-reliant economies, and foster innovation within rural communities.

National Bank for Agriculture and Rural Development, under the aegis of Department of Financial Services, is organizing this mega conclave cum exhibition.

Its objectives include promoting economic stability and financial security among rural populations, with a special focus on North-East India, by addressing financial inclusion and supporting sustainable agricultural practices.

A significant focus of the Mahotsav will be to empower rural women through entrepreneurship; bring together government officials, thought leaders, rural entrepreneurs, artisans and stakeholders from diverse sectors to build a roadmap for collaborative and collective rural transformation; encourage discussions around leveraging technology and innovative practices to enhance rural livelihoods; and showcase India’s rich cultural heritage through vibrant performances and exhibitions.

On Friday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi inaugurated the 1,675 newly constructed flats for the dwellers of JJ clusters and also handed over keys to eligible beneficiaries at Swabhiman Apartments in Ashok Vihar, Delhi. Ahead of the inauguration, PM Modi also inspected newly constructed flats for the dwellers of Jhuggi Jhopri (JJ) clusters under the In-Situ Slum Rehabilitation Project.

The objective of the project is to provide the residents of the JJ clusters in Delhi with a better and healthier living environment equipped with proper amenities and facilities, a press release had said.

For every ₹25 lakh spent on the construction of a flat by the government, eligible beneficiaries pay less than 7 per cent of the total amount, comprising ₹1.42 lakh as a nominal contribution and ₹30,000 for five years of maintenance.

PM Narendra Modi also virtually inaugurated two urban redevelopment projects – the World Trade Centre at Nauroji Nagar and GPRA Type-II Quarters at Sarojini Nagar, CBSE’s Integrated Office Complex at Dwarka and also laid the foundation stone of Veer Savarkar College at Roshanpura, Najafgarh.
