The Krishak Mukti Sangram Samiti (KMSS), a peasant organization based in Assam, on Wednesday staged a protest against the Bharatiya Janata Party, expressing its disapproval towards the 'vision document' printed by the party for the upcoming Delhi assembly elections, which referred to people hailing from the North-East as 'immigrants'.
Akhil Gogoi, General Secretary of the KMSS led the protest with hundreds of supporters following him, carrying banners which read 'Modi ji, change your mindset' and 'We oppose BJP's vision NE people as foreigners'.
The BJP goes head-to-head with the Aam Aadmi Party and the Congress in the Delhi assembly polls, scheduled to be held on February 7 with counting of votes to be held on February 10.
