The Nagaland Gaon Burha Federation (NGBF) on Wednesday decided to take out a march to the Raj Bhavan for submitting a memorandum to President Ram Nath Kovind through the State Governor with a request not to give his assent to the Citizenship Amendment Bill (CAB), 2016 if it is passed in Rajya Sabha.
The controversial Bill, which was passed in Lok Sabha on January 8, 2019, despite massive protests across the Northeast, is yet to get Rajya Sabha nod. The march will be started from Old MLA junction and reach Raj Bhavan in Kohima.
