DIPHU: All Party Hills Leaders Conference (APHLC) will continue to oppose the Citizenship (Amendment) Act, 2019. The APHLC will continue to participate in all the non-violent and democratic steps of agitation, said the APHLC leaders in a press conference held here at District Press Club of Karbi Anglong office on Tuesday.

APHLC president, JI Kathar termed the CAA an enemy of all the indigenous inhabitants of Northeast India. It is racial, communal and blatantly against the Indian Constitution. “The real objective in the mind of the RSS is to marginalise the indigenous people of Northeast India. The assurance that the new citizens under CAA will not be allowed to enter inside areas covered by the Sixth Schedule to the Constitution of India and Inner Line Permit Regulations is not a new thing. The so-called assurance is only to confuse the gullible people of the hills district,” he said. The press meet was also attended by APHLC, vice president, Rajesh Tisso, finance secretary, Sagar Tisso and spokesman, Angtong Ingti.
