Assam's CM warns Bangladesh-origin Muslims could reach 40% by 2027 census due to 4% growth since 2011.
Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma warned that the population of Bangladesh-origin Muslims in the state could reach nearly 40% by the 2027 census, citing a 4% growth rate per cycle since the 2011 census, which showed Muslims at 34%—about 31% of Bangladeshi origin.
Speaking at a BJP meeting in Guwahati, he attributed the shift to decades of "appeasement politics" and framed it as a threat to Assam’s cultural identity, emphasizing the need to preserve historical figures like Sankardeva and Lachit Borphukan.
The 2021 census was not conducted, disrupting data continuity.
