AJP leaders urge Rahul to raise illegal migrants issue in Parl
1 2 GUWAHATI: A high-level delegation of Assam Jatiya Parishad (AJP) met leader of opposition Rahul Gandhi in New Delhi on Tuesday, urging him to raise the twin issues of the Assam Accord implementation and constitutional safeguards for the Assamese people in Parliament. The meeting is significant given the tense atmosphere in the state due to the eviction drives initiated by the state govt and ultimatums issued by various vigilante groups to 'migrant Muslims' of Bangladesh origin to leave upper Assam. "The situation in Assam is unstable, with state govt attempting to create communal and factional conflicts. Instead of addressing the issue of foreigner identification and legal expulsion, they are engaging in politics and creating new problems, putting Assam in crisis," AJP president Lurinjyoti Gogoi alleged. "The BJP came to power with slogans of protecting the land and people but has done the opposite. Therefore, it is crucial to raise the issue in Parliament and apply pressure on the govt through national consensus," Lurinjyoti added. The AJP leaders said their meeting with Rahul Gandhi was solely in his capacity as the leader of opposition. However, the leaders of AJP clarified that there was no discussion about forming an alliance between the two parties ahead of the 2026 assembly election. The delegation, led by Lurinjyoti Gogoi and AJP general secretary Jagadish Bhuyan, included vice-president and senior advocate Kamal Nayan Choudhury, along with three secretaries, Ziaur Rahman, Chittaranjan Basumatary, and Raju Phukan. The meeting took place in the office of the Leader of the Opposition in the Parliament building, in the presence of deputy leader of Congress in Lok Sabha Gaurav Gogoi and MPs Pradyut Bordoloi and Rakibul Hussain. The delegation submitted a memorandum to Rahul, urging him to raise the issue of the BJP govt's 'deception' regarding the expulsion of foreigners in Parliament.

This event has the potential to derail the ongoing peace process in the state.' by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Play War Thunder now for free War Thunder Play Now Undo Highlighting the need for an inclusive and meaningful peace, the AJP leadership criticised the failure of Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma in taking effective steps to bring the ULFA (Independent) to the negotiating table. Gogoi and Bhuyan recalled that on the very day the tripartite peace accord was signed with pro-talk factions on December 29, 2023, the Chief Minister had hailed the agreement as a 'major step' and expressed hope that it would pave the way for talks with Paresh Baruah-led ULFA (Independent). 'Yet, since then, no concrete steps have been taken by the state government to ensure a dignified political resolution of the ULFA (Independent) issue,' they noted, calling it a clear reflection of the Chief Minister's failure to follow through on his public commitments. Live Events The AJP also criticised the Chief Minister's silence and inaction in the wake of the recent attack. 'His indifference even after such a serious development reveals his weakness in dealing with the issue and also reflects his diminished influence and relevance before the Centre,' the statement said. Reiterating its stand, the AJP leadership affirmed, 'We do not want the peace process in Assam to be derailed. To ensure lasting peace, a respectful political solution to the ULFA (Independent) issue is essential, and that is what we seek.' The party underscored the importance of sustained dialogue and political sensitivity in resolving long-pending insurgency-related issues in the state, emphasizing that peace cannot be achieved through military means or neglect, but through acknowledgement, dignity, and constructive political engagement. Proscribed militant ULFA- Independent claimed that at least three senior soldiers were killed, and 19 others were injured after the Indian Army launched a massive operation along the Indo-Myanmar border. The Army however claimed that it had not carried out any such operation. Defence sources said, 'no inputs with Indian Army on such operation.' ULFA (Independent) also known as the anti-talk faction of ULFA in a statement stated, 'Indian Army had launched drone attacks between Longwa in Indo -Myanmar border near Nagaland to Pangsau Pass along the international border near Arunachal Pradesh. The attack took place between 2 am to 4 am on Sunday. The outfit claimed that there was another attack later in the day on Sunday. The mobile camps of the banned outfit and RPF/PLA camps are affected severely as the Indian forces have dropped about 150 bombs in the entire area using drones made in Israel and France'.
