On December 1, the Pro-Talk faction of the United Liberation Front of Asom (ULFA-PTF) has expressed its reservation over its demands being “unnecessarily over discussed” at the peace talks which it feels is “stretching” the parleys, reports Assam Tribune. “In almost every round of talks, the ULFA leaders have been reiterating that all their demands are fundamental and cannot be ignored. These demands are within the constitutional framework and the government should not make any attempt to confuse or ask them to give up on any of it,” an unnamed source from the outfit said. The last round of talks between ULFA-PTF and Union Government’s Interlocutor AB Mathur was held in the last week of October in Guwahati.

Negotiations between United Liberation Front of Asom-pro-Talk Faction (ULFA-PTF) and Government of India (GoI) is reportedly heading towards a conclusion. Reports News 18 on December 3. The draft, framed as the two sides reached a consensus, will be forwarded to the Home Ministry for approval. A ULFA-PTF leader stated that “Talks with the interlocutor are going on, but the negotiations are almost completed. The Interlocutor shall make the draft on agreed points between ULFA and GoI shortly. After due consent from the Home Ministry, the draft file will be forwarded for the PMO’s final approval”. ULFA-PTF ‘general secretary’ Anup Chetia stated that “We are hopeful that the Government of India will sign the agreement very soon. However, we cannot ascertain the exact date on which the agreement will be signed. It totally depends on Government of India. We hope that agreement will be signed by early 2020”. In its 'charter of demands', the ULFA also demand a change to the law and order framework, which isn’t possible under the current provisions of the Constitution.

Assam Sahitya Sabha President Paramananda Rajbongshi on December 3 appealed to all civil society organisations and youths to oppose CAB, reports The Telegraph. Rajbongshi said the apex literary body of Assam was as worried about the bill as any other organisation of the state and would never support the proposed law. He added that “We strongly opposed the bill in front of both the joint parliamentary committee headed by MP Rajendra Agrawal and the select committee headed by MP Satya Pal Singh and during our meeting with Union home minister Amit Shah in Delhi on Saturday. We made it very clear that the bill was not acceptable as it would change the demography, culture and linguistic features of Assam and diminish the land and economic space of the indigenous people. We will continue to oppose it,”

After the Union Cabinet decision the Civil society groups in Nagaland and Arunachal Pradesh said they will continue to protest against the “divisive” provisions of the CAB, while an influential Mizo group said they have no further concerns about the proposed law, reports Hindustan Times. Hawa Bawang, president of the All Arunachal Pradesh Students Union said, “We are opposed to the CAB. The move to exempt some areas is an attempt to divide the people of Northeast.” Bawang further said, “We are one region. Assam and AASU [All Assam Student’s Union] have sacrificed so much. The Government of India has created a situation where they are leaving one leg intact and injuring the other leg.” the president of the Naga Students Federation (NSF) Ninoto Awomi, said that the students body was happy that Nagaland has been exempted but will continue to abide by the stand of the NESO, the umbrella body of student groups in the region which has been opposed to the proposed legislation. On the other hand, Central Young Mizo Association (CYMA) said it had no problems with the latest draft of the bill. “We have been assured that Mizoram is exempted. We have no concerns after the assurance,” said Vanlal Ruata, CYMA Chief.

Gorkhas under the banner of the Assam Gorkha Sammelan (AGS) and the Bharatiya Gorkha Parisangha (BGP) on December 20 reiterated their opposition to the Citizenship (Amendment) Act, 2019, reports The Telegraph. The General Secretary of AGS Bhaskar Dahal stated that “The Act will invite threat to the indigenous Gorkhas of Assam who are constituents of the greater Assamese community. This Act, if not exempted now, will not only change the demography of Assam, but will also adversely affect official Assamese language, communities’ cultural assimilation, art and literature, finally leading to challenging the constitutional protection of new settlers as committed in the Assam Accord.” Nityananda Upadhyay, president of the BGP stated that “The Assam Accord is a national commitment by the government of India to the people of Assam. Clause 6 of the Assam Accord, which guarantees constitutional protection of indigenous communities, should be implemented even before the Act is notified nationwide, exempting Assam and the Northeast.”

The Bodoland Territorial Area Districts (BTAD), a Sixth Schedule area exempted from the purview of CAA saw a massive protest against the law on December 26, reports The Telegraph. Over 10,000 people attended the protest. The rally is significant because thousands turned up in a CAA-exempted area, reflecting the people’s concern even in areas where outsiders are not allowed to buy land. A few anti-CAA protests have taken place in the BTAD but nothing of this scale so far. AASU General Secretary Lurinjyoyi Gogoi stated that “The rally received huge support as there is concern even in areas covered by the Sixth Schedule and inner-line permit. Garo hills (Sixth Schedule) in Meghalaya and Arunachal Pradesh (ILP) are hit by influx. Every year in Arunachal, there is drive to rid the state of ‘foreigners. It shows that no area is safe. We will never accept this unconstitutional Act which is detrimental to the indigenous people of Assam and will give constitutional safeguards to foreigners on religious lines.”
