NPF apraises the Zoramthanga's stand on CAB

  • The Naga People’s Front (NPF) has appreciated the Meghalaya and Mizoram CM’s stand against Citizenship (Amendment) Bill from day one.
     
  • “We are also grateful to Amit Shah who declared a special clause in CAB to protect the interest of Northeast states,” the NPF said.
     
  • The NPF said it welcomed the positive announcement aimed towards safeguarding the rights and identity of the indigenous people of the region.

  • Without such a special clause, no state is protected under any provisions from the Bill in its present form, NPF stated.
     
  • It would have done a lot of good if this problem was identified prior to the passing of the Bill by the 16th Lok Sabha.
