Cong used infiltration as tool for vote-bank politics: Amit Shah in Assam

Union home minister Amit Shah has alleged that Assam's demography changed during Congress's 20-year rule and added that seven districts of the state were "dominated by 64 lakh infiltrators." He stressed that only the BJP can stop infiltration and urged the people to elect the party again in the upcoming Assembly polls. Addressing a rally in Dhemaji on Friday, he highlighted the role of the Mising community, one of Assam’s major tribal groups, in preventing illegal settlers from moving into Upper Assam. Praising their “culture of hard work,” he said their way of life had acted as a natural barrier against infiltration.Shah announced that In the coming days, there will be special provisions for recruitment of youth from the Mising community in Central Armed Police Forces.

Amit Shah said the Narendra Modi-led government is using multiple measures to counter what he described as a demographic shift in Assam. He said that two successive BJP governments in the state had freed around 1.26 lakh acres of land from alleged encroachment by infiltrators.Shah also accused Congress leader Rahul Gandhi of disrespecting the North East by refusing to wear 'gamosa', presented by President Droupadi Murmu at the 'At Home' reception hosted by her on Republic Day. All dignitaries, including those from abroad, had worn the scarf as a mark of respect, but Gandhi was the "only person to refuse" to do so.
