<h1>Chief minister challenges Immigration and Foreigners Act, 2025 notification as procedurally flawed, ambiguous on citizenship and identity</h1> The state chief minister challenged a recent central government notification under the Immigration and Foreigners Act, 2025, calling it procedurally flawed and substantively ambiguous for failing to address citizenship, identity documents, and electoral inclusion for covered groups; she alleged it was a political maneuver that bypassed parliamentary and committee scrutiny and discriminated against certain communities. In the legislative assembly she accused the national ruling party of undermining sovereignty by aligning with foreign powers, of pursuing anti-regional policies, and of using state agencies to target Bengali-speaking and tribal persons; the session saw heated disruptions and reciprocal accusations of electoral malpractice and rights violations.
