Save the Hindus from the particular community: Assam CM urges RSS

0

Guwahati: Chief Minister of Assam Himanta Biswa Sarma on Sunday urged the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) to save the Hindus from “aggression’ by a people of a particular community. Himanta Biswa alleged that the northeast state may become another Jammu and Kashmir.

To protect the Hindu people in Assam, Himanta Biswa Sarma said that the RSS could do it because it has a grassroots-level organization and strong bond with common people in remote areas.

Sarma visited RSS headquarters in Silchar, Assam yesterday. While addressing a closed-door meeting at the HQ, he said, “Assam is going to become another Kashmir. Satras are in great danger because of the aggression of people. At the same time, the Hindus living in the tea belt and far-flung border areas of the state are also on the verge of extinction because of massive aggression.”

The Assam CM went on to urge the RSS to go to areas and consolidate Hindus to save institutions from danger.

Shifting the focus to the CAA and NRC, Sarma said that “It is true that some people in the state are staunch opponents of the two issues, however, things have started to change. Members from the intelligentsia, who met recently, conveyed the message to me that Bengali Hindus are never a threat to the Assamese community. People of Assam now understand the reality.”

The people of the Northeast have strongly opposed NRC and CAA. Though the bill covers refugees from three nations, the people in the Northeast fear that it will primarily benefit the illegal Bengali Hindu migrants from Bangladesh who have settled in “large numbers” across the region. It’s an established fact that a large number of illegal immigrants, both Muslims and Hindus, entered the Northeast-primarily Assam-and this bill is being seen as an attempt to legalize these illegal Hindu immigrants.

The bill was first introduced in Lok Sabha in 2016, but the first Modi government could not get the Bill passed in Rajya Sabha and it lapsed. Prime Minister Narendra Modi and BJP President and Union Home Minister Amit Shah, however, reiterated that the BJP was committed to passing the Bill.
