The Opposition Asom Gana Parishad is contemplating to move Supreme Court challenging the Centre’s Indian citizenship for the non Muslim Bangladeshi and Pakistani immigrants. Talking to Assam Times AGP president Atul Bora confirmed the move saying that they have been preparing to move the court.
“We are considering the options and we hope that we would be able to do so,” said Bora. The party has been dead opposed to the idea of the Centre for Indian citizenship to the Bangladeshi and Pakistani non Muslims.

It's good that AGP is protesting against the Central government's move to grant Indian citizenship to Pakistani and Bangladeshi migrants but what have AGP done when you ruled for two terms. AGP would have done more for Assam but the leaders are hopeless and useless who have betrayed the masses of Assam.
