Opposition parties in Assam seek clarification from Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma over the declaration made by Union Minister Kiren Rijiju that Chakmas and Hajongs in Arunachal Pradesh will be settled in Assam. The Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) comes into play as the Chakma community considers Assam for citizenship. Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma denies plans to relocate Chakma and Hajong refugees to Assam. The situation is seen as a result of the CAA that undermines the rights of indigenous people.
