AGARTALA, Dec 23 (TIWN): The Bengali population at neighboring state Assam is allegedly undergoing insecurity and lack of safety issues y as Dec 31st is the last date of their migration from Assam.

Addressing a press meet, Hari Gopal Debnath told media, "Actually, the people who call themselves as Ahomia, they were not at all Indians, but they were migrated from other countries but during British era the outsiders were joined with Bengalis".

Hari Gopal Debnath also said that instead of Bengalis were more in population, Ahomia was imposed upon the Assamees.

But after that with Hindu backed organizations the Ahomias began protest to outcast Bengalis and started 'Bangali-Khedao' movement.

In 1961 total 11 people were killed by police while protesting for Bengali language's identity. The Nehru led Central Govt was also silent on that time.
 

"In Congress era, the tortures had been increased a lot upon the Bengali people and even after Modi Govt's promise before election the security of the Bengalis were not assured and finally the deadline of 'Bangali-Bitaran' is 31 / 12/ 2017. We condemn the state and central govt's silence in this issue", added Debnath.
