Himanta Biswa Sarma Says BJP Doesn’t Need Votes of ‘Communal’ Miya Muslims In Assam Assembly Elections

ABP News  

With the Assam assembly elections due in April-May this year, electioneering has taken another gear in the state. Senior Bharatiya Janata Party leader and Health, Education and Finance Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma on Wednesday said the party does not need votes from those openly challenging the “Assamese culture, language and composite Indian culture”. Himanta Biswa Sarma was taking potshots at the Miya Muslims for being “very communal”.

Commenting on the National Register of Citizens, Sarma said: “We have already pointed out many anomalies in the implementation process of the first National Registration.” The Union Ministry of Home Affairs had earlier told a parliamentary panel that the Central Government has not yet taken any decision on the roll-out of the NRC for the entire country.
