Condemning the attacks on the people of Northeast in Delhi, CPI(M) today sought drafting of an anti-racist law to curb discrimination and such violence.
Expressing concern over the growing attacks including the death of Arunachal student Nido Taniam and several incidents of rape, the party Politburo said, "There is no doubt that there is a racist bias in such attacks."
"It is imperative that citizens from any part of the country are able to live in peace and harmony and pursue their work or studies in the capital of India without being subject to racist attacks," it said.
Maintaining that all necessary measures need to be taken to ensure the safety and security of people from the Northeast in Delhi, the CPI(M) said the Centre should also consider drafting an anti-racist law to curb such discrimination and attacks.
