NESO demands ILP in Northeast
Nagaland Post | Agencies | Guwahati, April 10:
With the Joint Parliamentary Committee on Citizenship (Amendment) Bill, 2016 scheduled to resume the hearings from April 12, the North East Students’ Organization (NESO), while opposing the Bill, demanded that inner line permit (ILP) system should be introduced in the entire region. NESO believes that the Bill is an attempt to impose the burden of Hindu Bangladeshis who came to India after 1971 on the entire North East region.
According to Assam Talks, the NESO, in a memorandum to the JPC, asserted that the North East is not a dumping ground for illegal Bangladeshis and the Bill would defeat the very purpose of signing of the Assam Accord. While supporting the Assam Accord, which set March 25, 1971 as the cut off date for detection and deportation of Bangladeshis living illegally in Assam, the NESO said that the Bill should not be adopted by the Parliament at any cost. If the Parliament adopts the Bill, it would create unrest in the region and the Bill should not be passed to avoid such a possibility.
