Dear Mr Shah, please STOP dehumanising people, irrespective of them being in the NRC list or not,” Amnesty India tweeted.įor the past few months, the NRC, a register of Indian citizens residing in the northeastern state of Assam, has remained a contentious issue for declaring four million of the state’s residents as foreigners.Īndrew Stroehlein, European media director at the US-based Human Rights Watch, said Shah’s statement was “disturbing” and reminded of a “path to genocide”. “Even before the NRC ( National Register of Citizens) process is over, it is horrific to hear Amit Shah dubbing Bangladeshi migrants as ‘termites’.

The president of India‘s ruling party has called Bangladeshi migrants “termites”, evoking sharp responses from Dhaka as well as leading rights groups.
