Gogoi said that the KMSS will carry out awareness drives from tomorrow onwards to every nook and cranny of Assam, to alert them to the dangers of the proposed Citizenship Bill. "Our stand is very clear -- we have no option but to protest the CAB -- as it is the only option if we are to save the Assamese."
Gogoi has also stated that on November 22, the KMSS will stage a protest in front of the Raj Bhavan as a mark of protest . "We want the message to be relayed to the Centre by submitting a memorandum to the Governor", he said.
