    “Detect, delete and deport all Bangladeshi/East Pakistanis that entered Khasi-Jaintia Hills since 1971,” read a banner displayed by the Khasi Students’ Union (KSU) on Saturday as part of the black day protest against the Citizenship (Amendment) Act, 2019. Called by the North East Students’ Organization (NESO), the black day was observed across the Khasi, Jaintia and Garo Hills region of the state.

    The NESO has been demanding the immediate scrapping of the CAA and implementation of the Inner Line Permit (ILP) in the whole of the North East region.

    Black flags and black banners were put up in strategic locations across the state.

    The banners also read, “The president of India is least concern about the welfare of NE by assenting CAB in 2019,” “Replace CAA with ILP in Meghalaya”, “NESO will never accept CAA” and “We want a foreigners free Meghalaya, scrap CAA.”

    NESO chairman Samuel B Jyrwa reminded that on December 11, 2019 despite the relentless opposition of the indigenous people of the North East against the CAB, 2019, the Government of India did not pay heed and it finally through the Rajya Sabha passed the draconian law which is known as CAA.

    He said NESO has declared that December 11 will always be remembered as a black day for the whole of the North East.

    “This observation is to give a message to the Government of India that we are against the CAA and also at the same time remind our people and our posterior of yet another political injustice that the government of India perpetrated against the indigenous peoples of the North East,” Jyrwa said.
