Saying ‘Miya’ not unconstitutional; term coined by Bangladesh Muslims: Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma
Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma stated that the term 'Miya' is not unconstitutional, asserting that individuals from Bangladesh coined it themselves. He explained his use of 'Miya' instead of 'Muslim' to differentiate from indigenous Assamese Muslims, referencing Supreme Court observations on population increase and alleged 'invasion' from Bangladesh.
