Imams, others coming to Assam Madrasas from outside states must register: CM Himanta Sarma

Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma on August 22 said that standard operating procedures (SoPs) have been designed in his state to ensure that Imams and other people coming to Madrasas from outside states must register their names on the portal. 'We have made some SoP that if any Imam comes to your village and you do not know him, immediately inform the Police Station, they will verify, only after that, they can stay. Our Muslim community of Assam is helping us in this work,' said Assam CM Himanta Biswa Sarma. 'We are also making a portal for Imam and other people who are coming to madrasa from outside the state. Those who are from Assam, do not need to register their names in that portal, people from outside will have to register their names in the portal,' he added.
