The Citizenship (Amendment) Bill was introduced in India’s Lok Sabha in July, 2016 by the Narendra Modi-led BJP Government. Today when Assam is burning in protest against the bill, BJP has completely ignored the sentiments of the people of Assam. The Home Minister replied that the bill will be placed in the Lok Sabha tomorrow,” Bora added in the statement. The Assam Accord was inked between the Government of India and All Assam Students’ Union (AASU) on 15 August, 1985. AGP has three ministers in the Sarbananda Sonowal-led BJP Government in Assam including Atul Bora himself.
