Leaders of the GSU tore copies of the CAA and set it on fire to express their opposition to the implementstion of the act in the northeast.
“Despite widespread opposition to CAA by all the student bodies of the North East, the centre has gone ahead and enforced it. We strongly resent that and decided to burn its copies,” said NESO assistant general secretary and former GSU secretary Manseng A Sangma.
The students also shouted anti CAA slogans during the protest.
