SHRI SWAPAN DASGUPTA: The two categories of 'refugees' and 'migrant' are distinguished. In this Bill, the principle related to refugees has been taken from the definition of a refugee given under the Geneva Convention of 1951 but that principle has been put here into a specific context of India. However, an attempt is being made through this Bill to make the entire Bengali Hindus, who came from East Bengal, invisible citizens. They have an identity, and that identity must be recognized. An attempt is being made to ignore the fact that they also actually suffered from persecution. Therefore, I register my protest. SHRI BISHWAJIT DAIMARY: There are some reasons for the apprehension among local people of the North-East regions about this Bill. After mass scale migration of foreigners from the neighboring countries, the local communities of the region felt marginalized. They strongly resisted the marginalization, in which many people were martyred and after that, an agreement was settled with the Central ___________________________________________________ This Synopsis is not an authoritative record of the proceedings of the Rajya Sabha. 550 Government in 1985, according to which an assurance was given by the Central Government to grant constitutional protection to the local people of the region. But it has remained an assurance only for the last 35 years, and nothing has happened so far to fulfill the assurance. Therefore, the people have lost their faith and due to this, they doubt the intention behind the Citizenship (Amendment) Bill, 2019 also.

  • India-Protest-4 Uttarakhand-Puducherry
    28.Uttarakhand Uttarakhand locals protest new Mansarovar route 20 September 2014 Locals from the Almora and Pithoragarh districts of Uttarakhand , on Friday, staged protests against the agreement between India and China over an additional route to Kailash Mansarovar. Chinese President Xi Jinping, on Thursday, proposed an additional route to Kailash Mansarovar via Nathu La in Sikkim, which was agreed to by Prime Minister Narendra Modi. The traditional Kailash Mansarovar route passes through towns and villages in the State’s Almora and Pithoragarh districts. The locals, including businessmen, across the two districts protested against the Centre’s decision as it would hamper the economy of the area, which is dependent on tourism. In Almora, the locals, on Friday, burnt effigies of the Central government in response to the agreement to the alternative route. According to the records of Kumaon Mandal Vikas Nigam (KMVN), which is the agency that conducts the Kailash Mansarovar yatra, a total of 338 groups comprising 13,534 people have participated in the yatra from the year 1981 to the present year. The yatra on the Indian side is conducted till the Lipulekh pass in Pithoragarh district. D K Sharma, Divisional Manager in KMVN said, “Around 2,000 porters, persons working with transport, hoteliers, are involved in the yatra and their earnings are dependent on it.” “An additional route would surely mean some loss to the State, however, the real picture will only emerge next year,” Mr Sharma said, adding that this year around 910 pilgrims took the yatra and Rs 32,000 was spent by an individual in the 24-day yatra.
