Assam Evictions Spark Controversy, Fuel Accusations of Bias
The Chief Minister of Assam and a Muslim leader are in a disagreement.
The government is removing people from their homes, which the leader says is unfair.
He claims that the government isn't following the rules and is treating a certain group of people poorly.
The Chief Minister defends the evictions and warns the leader to stay out of it.
The leader is also helping those who have lost their homes.
The main problem is whether these evictions are being done the right way, and if people are being treated with respect.
Maulana Madani criticized Assam eviction drives as inhumane and violating court directives.
Madani reported witnessing distress among affected families, mostly Bengali-speaking Muslims.
Himanta Biswa Sarma defended the evictions and warned Madani against crossing boundaries.
The JUH has urged for Sarma's removal and accused him of hate speech.
The state government has carried out evictions to free government, forest, and grazing land.
