KSU & HNYF opposed Citizenship Amendment Bill

The Khasi Student Union (KSU) and Hynniewtrep National Youth Front (HNYF) said that Meghalaya should not be included in the Citizenship Amendment bill as it gives opportunity to the Hindu, Jain, Buddhist, Pharsi, and Christian from Bangladesh, Afghanistan, and Pakistan to flow to the state of Meghalaya. KSU President Donald Thabah also said that not just Meghalaya but other North Eastern States including Assam should also reject this bill or else we will  be minority in our own soil. The All Jaintia Youth Welfare Organisation (AJYWO) also lend hands in opposing the bill.

After meeting the Joint Parliamentary Committee the President said that such Bill will have great impact on the demography of the Northeast as a whole. Meanwhile the KSU and HNYF are pleased with the Chief Minister Conrad Sangma for his understanding and initiatives for opposing the Bill introduce by the Union Government.

The rooms are bright and clean, quiet as Dr. Sujata takes care of a patient reclining in the chair at her Dayspring Dental Clinic. She works steadily, taking the time to give her undivided attention to the person in front of her. She doesn’t rush, instead working steadily to provide the first-class treatment her reputation has been built upon.

There is a common headline that The Onion (premier satirical news outlet) uses whenever there is a mass shooting in the USA. It is very unfortunate that that we get to read this headline frequently. Most of the article is also redundant where only the place and dates are changed. This is not trivializing the grave occurrence that it is talking about but on the contrary, it is working on the principle of castigat ridendo mores which means ‘laughing corrects morals’. Simply put, satire does cause social change.
