Himanta Biswa urges Congress to take stand against Bangladeshi illegal immigrants

Assam Minister and BJP leader Himanta Biswa Sarma on Sunday said that Congress should take a stand against Bangladeshi immigrant Muslims if it is true to its words about saving the state.

The minister took jibes at the Congress' Assam Bachao Bus Yatra when he said, "From whom do they want to save Assam? If they want to save Assam, then let them take a stand against the immigrant Muslims from Bangladesh who destroy Assam's culture and identity.

Instead, they are only going to the areas of these people and encouraging them."

He said Congress is lagging behind by 50 years and it is raking up stale issues of the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA).

"Nobody is discussing CAA. You can check social media. People are busy discussing that the Assam Government has provided scooties to girl students and the hot topic in social media is whether the boys will get Bullet motorcycles or splendor bikes," he said.
