Assam meeting on census to identify 'indigenous' Muslims -Tora Agarwala

-The Indian Express

Some fear such a census will “further marginalise” the descendants of Bengali-speaking migrants in Assam

Guwahati:
Assam’s Welfare of Minorities Minister Ranjit Dutta has confirmed the state’s plans to implement a census to identify Assam’s ‘khilonjiya’, or indigenous Muslim population, this year. On Tuesday, Dutta will meet with various representatives of the indigenous Assamese Muslim community to seek their “suggestions” in finalising the framework of the census.

“A sum of Rs 100 crore was announced to form the ‘Khilonjiya Muslim Development Corporation’ in the 2019-2020 state budget. To that end, the government will first do a survey or census to identify the population of the community,” said Dutta.
