Guwahati (Assam) [India], September 7 (ANI): Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma said on Saturday that the state government had thoroughly discussed the recommendations of the Justice (Retd) Biplab Sarma Commission on the implementation of clause 6 of the Assam Accord.
Clause 6 of the Assam Accord states that the Assamese people's cultural, social, linguistic identity, and heritage should be protected, preserved, and promoted through appropriate constitutional, legislative, and administrative safeguards.
"We had thoroughly discussed the recommendations of the Justice (Retd) Biplab Sarma Commission. 52 recommendations are under the ambit of the state government; 5 recommendations are under the ambit of both the state and the centre. The state government can implement 52 of the 67 recommendations of the Commission. There are 5-6 recommendations where we must talk with organisations and the public," CM Sarma told reporters here on the implementation of clause 6 of the Assam Accord.
CM Sarma said that the state government has decided to bring the 52 recommendations in the implementation states before Bohag Bihu (a festival that marks the beginning of the Assamese New Year)
"We have decided to bring the 52 recommendations in the implementation stage before Bohag Bihu. In the next 3 months, we will discuss with AASU and other organisations. As of now, we can't implement the recommendation of 80 percent reservation of Assamese people in Assembly, Panchayat. We want to seriously talk with the Centre about it," CM Sarm added.
CM Sarma said there is a possibility that some suspected people got Aadhar cards, and the state government will issue a notification in the next ten days, which will not be implemented in the tea garden.
"Aadhaar cards more than the population in Dhubri district were issued. Maybe some suspected people got Aadhaar cards. The Assam Government will issue a notification in the next 10 days that if you don't apply for NRC, you will not get an Aadhaar card in the new process. This notification will not be implemented in tea garden areas. From October 1, except in the tea garden, adults in other districts will have to go through a strict process," CM Sarma added.
CM Sarma added that the state government has ordered to intensify the detection of illegal immigrants in Assam.
"The detection process of foreigners was almost stopped after the updation process of the NRC. In the last few months, we have arrested or pushed back 20-30 Bangladeshis. Today we have ordered to intensify the detection of illegal immigrants in Assam. We have published detailed guidelines. We want to strengthen the process," CM Sarma added. (ANI)
