"No Automatic Citizenship": Centre As Northeast Protests Citizenship Act | Read

The centre has moved to allay fears over an influx of Bangladeshi Hindu refugees into the North East with a number of tweets on the official PIB Twitter handle this morning, after violent protests engulfed Assam and parts of the North East for a fourth consecutive day on Saturday. In a series labelled "#Mythbusters", the centre claimed the CAA would not trigger a fresh wave of migration and said: "...population share of Hindus in Bangladesh has declined from 28 per cent to 8 per cent... most minorities have already migrated".
