EastMojo: Northeast in a Nutshell EastMojo Podcast

If there is one industry in Assam which has seen many false dawns, it is the Cachar Paper Mill. Shut since October 2015, the BJP government had promised to restart it when it came to power. The BJP won, but as our documentary shows, the workers and staff of the paper mill lost.

In Episode 1, we look back at the passing of the Citizenship Amendment Act. On December 11, 2019, tens of thousands of protesters took to the streets of Assam to protest against the Citizenship Amendment Act. And by the end of the day, Assam had turned into a battleground.

Last year’s protest, which claimed five lives, was perhaps the most widespread opposition the state had seen since the Assam Agitation in the 1980s. Over the next few days, five people were killed by the Police. What happened after that? Did they find justice, or did it remain elusive?
