Question:

Refugees of which community are met with hostile treatment in Mizoram and Arunachal Pradesh?

Options:

Kuki

Rohingya

Bhutia

Chakma

Correct Answer:

Chakma

Explanation:

While the Assam accord brought peace and transformed the political landscape in Assam, it did not fully resolve the immigration problem. The issue of 'outsiders' remains a prominent concern in the politics of Assam and many other regions in the North-East. This problem is particularly pronounced in Tripura, where the original inhabitants have become a minority in their own land. Similar sentiments drive the local population's hostility towards Chakma refugees in Mizoram and Arunachal Pradesh.
