Urgent Revelation: Assam CM Unveils Groundbreaking White Paper on Demographic Changes by April 2025
Guwahati, Aug 28: Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma announced on Wednesday that a comprehensive white paper detailing recent demographic changes in the state will be published by April next year. According to Sarma, this document will provide an in-depth analysis of significant demographic shifts in Assam, covering 23,000 of the state’s 28,000 polling booths.
Sarma emphasized the importance of the upcoming white paper in raising public awareness about these evolving demographic trends and their implications. “The aim is to provide a clear understanding of these changes to the public and engage them in meaningful discussions,” Sarma stated on a micro-blogging platform.
Despite the rising Muslim population in predominantly Hindu areas, Sarma assured that communal harmony remains intact, highlighting that “In areas where the Muslim population is increasing within Hindu-majority polling booths, there is no resistance from the Hindu community, and peaceful coexistence is maintained.” However, he acknowledged that the opposite scenario is occurring in other regions.
The Chief Minister affirmed the state government’s commitment to preserving current demographic balances and preventing migration between villages to uphold communal harmony. “Our approach is focused on fostering peace and maintaining harmony in Assam,” Sarma said.
The white paper will also shed light on noteworthy cases, such as the situation in Dhing, where the village of Kachari Gaon, previously inhabited by the Kachari community, now has no Kacharis residing there.
In Sarma’s words, “हम एक White Paper ले कर आ रहे हैं जिससे यह प्रमाणित होगा कि असम के 28,000 पोलिंग बूथ्स में से 23,000 बूथ्स में जनसांख्यिकी बदल रही है।” (We are bringing out a White Paper that will prove demographic changes in 23,000 out of 28,000 polling booths in Assam). The publication aims to provide a foundational document for informed public debate on Assam’s demographic changes.
