Students boycott classes in Assam univs and colleges against
CAA
Guwahati, Jan 22 (PTI) Classes across universities and
colleges in Assam were affected on Wednesday due to the "total
shutdown" call given by students unions of nine varsities from
North East on a day the Supreme Court heard the pleas on
Citizenship (Amendment) Act.
However, examinations were conducted peacefully as the
agitators had kept it out of the shutdown.
The students unions of Tezpur University, North Eastern
Hill University, Gauhati University, Assam Women's University,
Assam Agricultural University, Dibrugarh University, Nagaland
University, Rajiv Gandhi University and North Eastern Regional
Institute of Science and Technology had called for the
boycott.
Hearing a batch of 143 petitions, the Supreme Court on
Wednesday gave the government four weeks to respond to the
pleas challenging the CAA and said a five-judge Constitution
bench will hear the matter.
"We will not accept the CAA at any cost. We had called
for class boycott today and our agitation will continue till
the Act is repealed," Dibrugarh University Post Graduate
Students Union General Secretary Rahul Chetry told PTI.
Hundreds of students wearing black badges and carrying
black flags gathered at the gate of Dibrugarh University and
burnt copies of CAA.
Chetry informed that 21 universities of North East will
organise a "Tiranga March" in Guwahati on January 26 against
the new citizenship law.
Accepting that classes did not take place, Dibrugarh
University Internal Quality Control Director, Kalyan Bhuyan
said "Usually January is our vacation month. However,
examinations are going on peacefully."
Students of the Gauhati University burnt copies of the
CAA gazette notification on the road outside the varsity and
raised slogans against the BJP and the contentious law.
No classes were held at Tezpur University due to the
boycott call, but examinations proceeded without any
interruption, the varsity's Students Council President Jyotish
Pal Deka said.
At Cotton University in Guwahati, a sit-in demonstration
was organised under the aegis of the students union, which did
not call for a boycott of the classes.
"We did not call for class boycott as examinations are
going on. We organised the sit-in and invited all to come and
join us. Students came and took part in the protest batch by
batch without affecting classes," Cotton University Students
Union General Secretary Rahul Bordoloi said.
The affiliated colleges of these universities across
Assam saw their students coming out of the classes and
protesting against the CAA, which was heard in the Supreme
Court during the day.
Students of Digboi Womens' College joined by general
women blocked the NH-37 in the afternoon.
At North Lakhimpur College, thousands of students came
out of their campus and hit the roads.
Black flags were hoisted at colleges across Sivasagar,
Sonari and Dhakuwakhana. A protest rally was organised by
students at Kampur.
Classes at Darrang College and Tezpur College were also
hit even as students held protest against the law.
Meanwhile, protest against the controversial legislation
continued across the state on Wednesday.
At Dirak in Tinsukia district, several thousand people
joined a protest march against the CAA.
Activists of Asom Jatiyatabadi Yuva Chhatra Parishad
(AJYCP) attempted to tie black flags on the walls of the
office of the Deputy Commissioner of Nagaon district, but they
were detained by the police.
The highly contentious CAA seeks to provide Indian
citizenship to Hindus, Jains, Christians, Sikhs, Buddhists and
Parsis entering India on or before December 31, 2014 from
Bangladesh, Pakistan and Afghanistan after five years of
residence here.
Massive peaceful protests have been continuing across all
the districts in Brahmaputra valley since Assam witnessed one
of the worst violent protests by the public in its history
with three rail stations, post office, bank, bus terminus,
shops, dozens of vehicles and many other public properties
being set ablaze or totally damaged since December 9. PTI TR
