The reason behind this
civil war situation in Assam and Northeast India the new citizenship amendment
bill 2016 or CAA that lastly introduces by the Bjp government on the Indian Parliament.
The Citizenship (Amendment) Bill, 2016, is a proposed act grant citizenship to
illegal immigrants belonging to Hindu, Sikh, Buddhist, Jain, Parsi and
Christian from Afghanistan, Bangladesh, and Pakistan who entered India till
December 31, 2014.
Northeast India fighting against illegal migrants has a long history. This bill thus hurts the sentiment of Northeast people and doesn’t
want any more migration which changing the cultural landscape of the North-eastern states. "Hello China, bye-bye India”
Among various Northeastern states
where protests have broken out over the Citizenship (Amendment) Bill, Mizoram
witnessed massive demonstrations last week.
These came into focus particularly
because of photos, widely circulated on social media that showed protesters
with posters that proclaimed “Hello China, bye-bye India”. This protest was
organized by the influential Mizo Zirlai Pawl (MZP).
The slogan was intended to
convey that “we are not safe in India”, said Lalhmachhuana, general secretary
of the central committee of the Young Mizo Association (YMA). An umbrella body
of various civil society organizations and students of Mizoram - NGO
Coordination Committee boycotted the Republic Day and Governor of Mizoram had
to address the republic day speech on empty ground.
"Mizoram Governor
Kummanam Rajasekharan on Saturday addressed an almost-empty ground on the 70th
Republic Day, due to a state-wide boycott call given by an umbrella
organization against the Citizenship (Amendment) Bill".
No member from the general public attended the
function; police said adding that only ministers, legislators and top officials
were present.
The boycott call was given by the NGO Coordination Committee, an
organization of civil society groups and student bodies.
The Krishak Mukti Sangram
Samiti leader Akhil Gogoi also said if proper respect is not shown to the Assamese
people and citizenship amendment bill is passed, then “we must have the courage
to tell the government that we may consider not staying with India”. And he
also said that “if the government gives us the respect we deserved, we are with the
nation but if the sentiments of the indigenous Assamese are ignored and the
bill is passed, then each Assamese must have the courage to say that they will
not be a part of India,.
The same massive protest going on states of
Meghalaya, Manipur, and Tripura. Where the Meghalaya Bjp coalition government cut tides
with central Bjp due to this protest and state government standing with the general
public as well Mizoram state government also stands behind their civilian.
