Assam will burn if citizenship bill is passed: Anup Chetia

Monday, 5 November 2018



Assam will burn if the Centre continues to push the Citizenship (Amendment) Bill, Anup Chetia, the general secretary of ULFA faction which is currently in talks with the government, said on the Tinsukia killings, according to a report published on the Hindistan Times.
He said attempts by vested interests to blame the pro-talk faction of the insurgent outfit for the incident, would derail the ongoing peace process which are now in their "final stage".
"Assam will burn if they continue to push the bill," Chetia said. "If the bill is passed in Parliament, the situation will worsen and the recruitment for ULFA (I), the ant-talk faction, will increase," Chetia said.
