More than hundreds of people from the Northeast, staying in Odisha, participated in the democratic protest against the Citizens Amendment Act (CAA), 2019 on Saturday.

The citizens from Assam living in Bhubaneswar also condemned the killing of innocent citizens and police atrocities on the peaceful protestors, the Assamese Society of Bhubaneswar informed.

A large number of foreigners have infiltrated into Northeast, particularly Assam, for years through the porous Indo-Bangla border, which has posed a serious threat to the indigenous culture, language, and identity.

The Act seeks to grant Indian citizenship to persons belonging to Hindu, Sikh, Buddhist, Jain, Parsi and Christian communities who have migrated to India after facing persecution on grounds of religion in Pakistan, Afghanistan, and Bangladesh if they fulfil conditions for grant of citizenship.
