Assam Opposition's Shutdown Call As CAA Implemented
CAA Protest In Assam: Protests erupted across Assam with the Opposition parties slamming the Centre's decision to implement the contentious Citizenship (Amendment) Act, 2019 (CAA), paving the way for granting citizenship to non-Muslim migrants from Pakistan, Bangladesh and Afghanistan.
The 16 party United Opposition Forum, Assam (UOFA), led by the Congress, has announced a state-wide shutdown today, despite Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma's warning that political parties in the state that they could lose their registrations if found to be organising strikes and protests against the implementation of CAA.
