RTI plea seeks Clause 6 report status -Umanand Jaiswal

-The Telegraph

Report was submitted to Assam chief minister Sarbananda Sonowal on February 25

A Guwahati-based advocate Santanu Borthakur has taken the RTI route to get information about what the state government did with the Clause 6 report after it was submitted to Assam chief minister Sarbananda Sonowal on February 25 by a committee constituted by the Union ministry of home affairs in July 2019.

“I filed an application under the Right to Information (RTI) Act with the home and political department and the Assam Accord department on September 21 to know in details what steps have been taken by the government on the Clause 6 report between February 25 and September 20. I want to know things like meetings or discussions held, when these were held, their minutes — to clear our doubts,” Borthakur, who practises in Gauhati High Court, told The Telegraph on Wednesday evening.

Clause 6 of the 1985 Assam Accord, an outcome of the six-year-long Assam Movement against illegal foreigners, provides for constitutional, legislative and administrative safeguards “to protect, preserve and promote the cultural, social, linguistic identity and heritage of the Assamese people”.
