In Assam, more than 30 groups, including the All Assam Students’ Union (AASU), have decided to stage protests against the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA). AASU President Uttpal Sharma announced that during Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s state visit, a 12-hour hunger strike and agitation will be held in all districts on March 9. Sharma stated that several cases against the CAA are currently pending in the Supreme Court, and therefore, making rules and implementing the CAA would be a serious injustice to the people. He said that the people of Assam have never accepted the CAA, and they will oppose any steps to enforce it. We will continue our democratic and peaceful protests against the central government’s decision, alongside legal battles
