It is emphasized that this law applies only to people who entered India before the cut-off period and does not encourage the flow of migrants.
The MHA has clarified that the CAA does not violate the cultural rights of people living in the North-East as per Article 29 of the Constitution and does not encourage further foreign immigration to India because it only applies to past events and does not apply to the future.
The MHA responded by denying their claims. She emphasized that the CAA was intended to protect those who fled Pakistan, Bangladesh, and Afghanistan out of fear of religious persecution. According to section 2 of the Immigration (Removal from Assam) Act of 1950, the same groups of people were also exempted from deportation. As a result, there is no conflict between Assam Accord and CAA.
The statement of the center also said that “tribal areas of Assam and Tripura, which are the most vulnerable in terms of indigenous people, fall in the areas excluded from the CAA. It has been submitted to the parts of Assam and Tripura. same as all states of Mizoram, Manipur and Arunachal Pradesh and almost all states of Nagaland & Meghalaya are placed in the same way.
