Assam Students’ Union

(Aasu) on Tuesday moved SC seeking a stay on implementation of CAA, even as

protests

continued in the state against the Centre’s decision to notify the legislation.”We have trust in SC and it will give justice to people of northeast,” Aasu general secretary Utpal Sarma told the media in New Delhi.
Back in the state, protesters burnt effigies of PM Modi, home minister Amit Shah and copies of the law in Lakhimpur and Dibrugarh. Supporters of Aasu and 30 non-political indigenous organisations took out torchlight processions across the state. Congress workers, led by leader of opposition in the assembly, Debabrata Saikia, staged a protest in front of the party’s state headquarters in Guwahati and burnt copies of CAA.
