AASU, Krishak Muti Sangram Samiti and other organisations will relaunch the Assam-specific movement against the CAA on Saturday.
Students’ organisations across the eight northeastern States relaunched their movement against the Citizenship (Amendment) Act (CAA) by observing a black day on Friday, marking the passage of the law in the Rajya Sabha in 2019.
The North East Students’ Organisation (NESO), the apex body of the States and tribe-based student bodies in the region, said they will continue to protest and observe December 11 as a black day until the citizenship law is scrapped.
