520 _aThe recent wave of state-led evictions in Assam is a convergence of developmental violence, communal exclusion, and corporate land grab. Disguised as legal action against encroachment, these evictions disproportionately target poor, landless communities, stripping them of shelter, dignity and legal recourse. A majority of the victims are Miya Muslims. The evictions are not merely administrative acts but performative spectacles that dehumanise the displaced, fracture intercommunity relations and hollow out the democratic promise of equal citizenship.- Reproduced https://www.epw.in/journal/2025/47/commentary/evictions-extractivism-and-crisis-belonging-assam.html
