Threatening an intense democratic movement across the state, the All Arunachal Pradesh Students' Union (AAPSU) today termed the decision of the Centre for invoking President's Rule in the state as 'hasty'.
"We cannot accept such a decision by the Centre in 'haste' without verifying the facts and will oppose it tooth and nail," AAPSU President Kamta Lapung said in a statement.
Lapung claimed that staging dharna and protest rallies in the state capital did not amount to deterioration in law and order situation which prompted the Governor to recommend for promulgation of Article 356 (1) in the peaceful state.
The apex students' body also alleged Union Minister of State for Home Affairs Kiren Rijiju hatched a conspiracy to topple the democratically elected government.
"This is a conspiracy hatched by Rijiju with the objective of installing a BJP government in the state. We will go for rigorous mass democratic movement throughout the state to protest imposition of Central Rule if the Centre did not revoke its decision immediately," he said.
