AGARTALA, June 18 (TIWN): Various parties in Northeast already started campaigning against Citizenship Amendment Bill (CAB). The propaganda has also started in Tripura led by the regional parties.

 IPFT (Tipraha) has warned to go in massive protest if CAB is going to be implemented.

Concerned about the possible reintroduction of contentious Citizenship Amendment Bill during the monsoon session of 17th Lok Sabha, Manipur People Against Citizenship Amendment Bill (MANPAC) reaffirmed its stand to put up resistance collectively with other northeastern states if the Bill is legislated.

MANPAC also issued a warning to launch various forms of intense agitations if the Bill is reintroduced in the Parliament.

MANPAC is an umbrella body of several civil bodies operating in Manipur, who spearheaded the protest against the passing of citizenship Bill last year.

In January, 2019 due to Citizenship Bill issue turmoil created in the state and many injured along with violence took place in Jirania.
