Assam, Mizoram draft rules to curb illegal immigration
Context
The two northeastern States, Assam and Mizoram, have toughened their stand on identification documents to curb unauthorised cross-border movements of Bangladesh and Myanmar nationals.
Assam’s Aadhaar Policy:
- The Assam government to issue Aadhaar cards to adult citizens only through District Commissioners (DCs).
- Aimed at making it difficult for illegal Bangladeshi immigrants to obtain Aadhaar, facilitating their detection and deportation.
- Assam has achieved 100% Aadhaar coverage, prompting stricter measures for new applications.
- Additional Measures: Since April 2025, individuals not applying for inclusion in the National Register of Citizens (NRC) are barred from obtaining Aadhaar.
Mizoram’s Policy on Myanmar Refugees:
- The Mizoram Government plans to retain the identity cards of Myanmar nationals to regulate movement across the border.
- Implementation:
- Identity cards to be collected from Myanmar nationals during their stay in Mizoram.
- Strict action, including seizure of IDs, against those misusing refugee status.
- Biometric data collection of Myanmar nationals entering Mizoram initiated to enhance monitoring.
