Overview
- AASU organised candlelight tributes and lit 860 lamps in district headquarters on August 15 to honour Assam Movement martyrs and highlight stalled Accord commitments.
- Leaders accused the Centre and state of failing to identify, deport or delist suspected post-1971 migrants and of leaving infiltration routes unsealed.
- The union demanded a fixed deadline to enact all Accord clauses, full implementation of the 52 recommendations by the Justice Biplab Sharma committee, a flawless NRC update and exemption from the CAA.
- Critics have spotlighted 2024–25 government instructions diverting non-Muslim migrant cases from Foreigners Tribunals toward CAA pathways, reshaping enforcement practices.
- Assam’s ruling party says it has launched historic steps toward Accord implementation, but opposition figures and AASU contend those efforts fall short of comprehensive fulfilment.
