GUWAHATI: The Krishak Mukti Sangram Samiti (KMSS) on Friday stated that in spite of stiff opposition from more than a few quarters, the Citizenship (Amendment) Bill is also tabled within the Lok Sabha within the first week of January. KMSS adviser Akhil Gogoi stated BJP, buoyed by way of its luck within the panchayat polls, desires to ‘gamble’ with the lives of indigenous communities.
After conserving discussions with the joint parliamentary committee (JPC) participants on December 31, a call is perhaps to be taken in favour of clearing the invoice, Akhil stated. BJP enjoys a majority within the JPC, he further said, including that the invoice could be tabled in Lok Sabha on January 7.
“Chief minister Sarbananda Sonowal and finance minister Himanta Biswa Sarma are seeking to appease the Centre. But the people of Assam are against this invoice because it threatens the very identity of the state. We dare the government to go for a plebiscite at the invoice,” Akhil stated all through a press convention convened by way of the leadership of 70 organisations, together with KMSS and Asom Jatiyatabadi Yuba Chatra Parishad, which might be main a joint motion in opposition to the invoice. Akhil further stated that the BJP has the numbers to go the contentious invoice within the Lok Sabha but they will in finding substantial opposition in Rajya Sabha because the saffron birthday celebration is yet to get a majority within the Upper House of the Parliament.
