While officials say it’s about removing illegal encroachers, on the ground, the evictions have mostly targeted Bengali-speaking Muslims, raising serious questions about religious profiling, identity, and politics ahead of elections. From Paikan in Goalpara to Dhubri and Lakhimpur, thousands of families have been displaced. Many say they have lived here for decades, with schools, electricity, and government facilities built for them, only to now be branded as “illegal migrants.” Deccan Herald's Northeast special correspondent, Sumir Karmakar traces Assam’s unresolved “foreigner” question, from the 1979 Assam Agitation and the Assam Accord of 1985, to the failed NRC update and the Citizenship Amendment Act. We speak to activists, lawyers, evicted families, and the All Assam Students’ Union to understand why the issue remains unsettled 40 years later. #AssamEvictions #AssamAccord #NRC #AssamPolitics #BJP #HimantaBiswaSarma #AssamNews #IllegalMigration #BengaliMuslims #EvictionDrive #NRCControversy #ReligiousProfiling #Goalpara #Dhubri #IndiaPolitics #miya ------------ Liked the video?
