No foreigner will be allowed to stay in Assam, he says
Sibsagar MLA and Raijor Dal president Akhil Gogoi has vowed to revive the anti-Citizenship (Amendment) Act (CAA) movement that lost steam in Assam after a violent start in December 2019. Mr. Gogoi slammed the leaders of the movement for ‘betraying’ the people while he spent 18 months in prison. after a special court of the National Investigation Agency (NIA) acquitted him and three others under charges of sedition, hobnobbing with Maoists and inciting violence during the anti-CAA movement. “We will resume the anti-CAA movement and not allow any foreigner to stay in the State,” Mr Gogoi told journalists in Nagaon on Friday, about 125 km east of Guwahati, on the way to his constituency further east.More Related News
