Urgent Plea: AIUDF Appeals to Himanta Biswa Sarma for Immediate Protection of Muslims in Assam
AIUDF Seeks Security for Muslims in Assam Amid Threats
On Thursday, August 29, the All India United Democratic Front (AIUDF) submitted a memorandum to Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma, highlighting the urgent need for security measures to protect Muslims in the state. This plea comes shortly after the party addressed Governor Lakshman Prasad Acharya, urging action against multiple organizations that have reportedly issued threats to a segment of the Muslim community in Upper Assam.
According to the memorandum submitted to the Governor, these organizations have publicly demanded that Muslims vacate the Upper Assam districts or face severe consequences. The AIUDF emphasized that such threats not only cause alarm but also pose a serious threat to communal harmony and the safety of the Muslim community in the region.
The AIUDF’s appeal underscores the heightened tension and potential danger faced by Muslims in Upper Assam, and calls for immediate intervention by the state government to ensure their safety and maintain communal peace.
In related news, the AIUDF has expressed its intent to approach the courts if there is an attempt to forcefully pass the Assam Repealing Bill, 2024.
