Question:

The Chakma refugees are dealt with hostility by the local population of which state?

1- Assam
2- Tripura
3- Mizoram
4- Arunachal Pradesh

Choose the correct answer from the given options:

Options:

1 and 2

2 and 3

3 and 4

4 and 1

Correct Answer:

3 and 4

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.
