Delimitation row: Non-tribals lose pol right to contest polls

IndiaTimes Saturday, 12 August 2023
The delimitation move in Assam was allegedly aimed at reducing the role of Muslims, especially in lower Assam, from being the determining factor but according to the final delimitation draft, numerous indigenous families in lower Assam's oldest district, Goalpara, will lose their right to contest election as these non-tribal families have been shunted to Scheduled Tribe (ST) reserved seats.
