Assam Chief Minister Accused of Inciting Anti-Muslim Sentiment

Assam Chief Minister Accused of Inciting Anti-Muslim Sentiment

Imagine a state in India where some people are worried about losing their culture and land.

The local leader is using this worry to target a specific group of people who speak Bengali and practice Islam, calling them outsiders.

He's making them seem like the enemy, even though they've been living there for a long time.

He's also making new rules that seem to target this group, like limiting where they can buy land and saying they are a threat to the state's identity.

This has led to protests and accusations of discrimination, causing division and fear among the people.
