7:40 am
see i'm in here. i would like to go beyond just name be a part b, b. so, but we have to understand the position of us. i'm here as a state, as a region, as an historical community. and we have to see that, you know, there are 2 things that play here. one is the past that continues to the postcolonial times, and one is that he follows good present, right? i mean, we don't understanding the ecology of the place. it is very difficult to get into this debate, right. uh, we have to understand that our sam has a very, very high rate of lendy erosion. riverbank erosion which is many times higher than the national average in india. the figure is very astounding. it is close to up a 1000000 for 40, so will be 470000 hectic. you know me meters, all the lawsuit that get so it's a very high figure. so that is something that is moving to whole disposal, eviction and encroachment. there are people forever kind of know why you communities will be from one. there's one either, right? we don't understanding that. we just cannot jump into
7:41 am
a political debate by just like they're picking up one party or the other parent that that is there. yeah, yeah, yeah, i appreciate you bringing that up. of course there's an environmental aspect that's underpinning a lot of this why people are being displaced. and if those people who are being kicked out actually are being relocated or not. i do want to hear directly from dury. i'm going to come right back to you at the, at the, at that at the back end of this video. this is from an al jazeera package in june. it shows that family in a som who's being evicted, speaking directly to this issue, and then i'll come back to jury. take a listen. as it is then and his daughter amena, pick up the pieces of the 10 shack that was their home until 10 days ago, they collect the bags of ginger, which he used to farm on a small piece of land. as it then takes a moment to reflect before leaving the shack in india's northeast and our farm state. his family is now staying and ta, poland, tense with others whose homes were demolished by government, bulldozers,
7:42 am
museum and in or what i was. so we have been here for so long all these years. i made my living war king here grew up here. my father died here. now i have grown old. why this happened? i have no clue. so jury, when you see this man saying he's been there for you know, decades are and these families are being evicted, are regardless of the motivation behind it. what is being done by the government. and i don't 1st of all, when i see the videos, when you are showing that in the media, i have been you know, following a zeta before. also the community is which you all wish the, you don't sure. you know, you all the deals are not actually that is awesome. uh huh. where did the when haven't you have been projecting a sub? most of them are you are showing the valley or is it like know what actually the

7:44 am
we're trying to do on this show jury. if you just let me explain this year, you're saying that you know, this is about al jazeera and what al jazeera focuses on and it's reporting this show. and this topic is really to understand what is happening to human beings, human beings who are being dispossessed. and we're, i have one point to raise this down that when it is called like human, irrespective of religion or the cost or the grade. when we are saying about the eviction, it's more of the goldman maddie defective love, really? yeah. right. and then it is the lake and also some of the media alls as well as so the so and so about that here. so. so missouri, missouri, missouri, people, people on the ground who are bearings and majority jury. if i may ask, if i may, people on the ground are witnessing and there are reports and it's not al jazeera, only local reports international report either just being one of the media that the majority of those affected by these evictions are in fact muslims,
7:45 am
and of from bengali origin, i want to ask you abdulla column. you know, why is this? why is this such a such a controversial issue? what is, what in your mind, you were interrupting jury there what in your mind is being missed in the way the international community is? is viewing this yeah, i think a cluster was circling, it of it is i did, it shows that it has it. it has a very no on the context and down and, and a 20 extra duty was twisting. yes, in a sam eviction is a, it's a video video on be sure, even before partition muslims, that when ever getting 1946, there was an eviction drive. it led on with we also see that kind of eviction and now when zullie place to build and this people up by lobby, she but she doesn't. my name fire ballot is,
7:46 am
is i faint or is an of bangladesh. but we, i what actually, you're only gonna init gifts, i'm not saying they are valid. how india, how you know, in any grant how, how can we give them illegal immigrant, their body, legal, immigrant, be out and in cities in that and i think that so, so, and how can, how can we process that? i've gotten point and, and, and coming to that point, we've dealt with a cost of lived when this large number of people are getting, you know, a displaced every year. goldman doesn't have any plan to rehabilitate them. but, and then when this people get displeased, what they go is they do actually contest a citizen, show up this people. if you see the current crisis with in, in, in, in, in a, in portable, in a dot on the state. you will see that dad is a multi stakeholder in all a stakeholder, a on petition going on to make them, you know,
7:47 am
homeless. you will see that fast together did as i understand variables with addition. i know you're clear, it's clear to me that i'm go kilometer jury are in disagreement. i want to hear from power to stop. i'm but please give me half immediately is going to happen. we need to do to, to finish my point is dead when quickly. what's your point? yeah. yeah. so this people went dead, either in or displaced by anybody illusion. and the federal government land. you know, it stays there for a several 1000000 de leon, i on just now samuel on both now and i'll go to this area now all in. okay. okay. i actually the again, i'm included this. okay. so, so it's a that it's actually, i have no idea. yeah. i go, i don't think they are not. i don't believe it is. i mean it, unfortunately, unfortunately our audience and i am struggling to understand you. so i'm going to go to cows tab. i appreciate that you're in disagreement if they have evidence to
7:48 am
prove that they're citizens. obviously you disagree as to whether they are citizens . cows to uh, we have another journalist and researcher not from al jazeera jury, just in case this way, you know, a local, if you will. so someone actually in the hague sent us this. horace czar gar, take a listen to what he says about what we're witnessing, and i saw what we witnessing in awesome is to swell it big. so it's nick, communal and sort of politics. a song for long has been decided to fall contestation for the hindu to forces an ideology championed by the government ruling dispensation of by mister, not into mo, dnd, his bud fusion to party. the miscommunication and mister presentation of 12 muslim bengali speaking migrants as legal and coaches. bits on this xenophobic trope, a, someone will be true as muslims, being these supported alien inmate does, and coaching on the lines of the indigenous people. so what we're witnessing in us
7:49 am
on with a den b folks are spanned across india, we had muslims would be desperate to test for this doesn't ship. and so basically the litigated either as the can cluster isms or state less people. so what i understand cow stub and i think it is important to be made clear for our audience. at the very minimum is that there are many people and some who have been in india for generations, but they may not have necessarily all of them. the paperwork to prove it and there's this national registry, the n r c that a lot of people are criticizing saying it doesn't, it doesn't do enough to protect these people and it doesn't include not only muslims, but others in your opinion. what is the n r r c supposed to address, you know, supposed to really accomplish and is it accomplishing that where, where is there a solution for these human beings that are being evicted in increasing numbers? yeah, before that, before that,
7:50 am
i mean i would have like one quick reaction to what we just heard and i think it will, it does not help if we just put a very linear kind of finality box. just calling what's happening in the sam as did off will be our reactionary because that's very simplistic. i mean that, that, that the binary, off, the, everything to the complexities of the sides of the know muslim versus others. that actually is not very in the case of us and we have lots of ethnic complexities. we have no competition between drives. we have complexity between indigenous versus non indigenous or so that is got something very understandable immediately for have school. it needs more time and more engagement for that chart coming back to your credit, coming back to your question. and i mean interestingly, and i see one enterprise, we just kind of left everybody be satisfied. now even the ruling party is completely washing the hands of an r c. that's because perhaps what was the aim of an r c was eventually not seem to, you know, be met. and what happens is that interestingly, i mean,
7:51 am
and there's the question. also we have not, so we know co bridge and you can say or not so good will about an event from them. a simple listen of a some because everybody thought that he'd be at the document that really kind of go for once and for all the said look, wish enough. yeah. who's a citizen who. ready is not, but now of course we have seen that it is paperwork and bureaucratic state is very difficult. it over there can be no place is something altogether different and what has because of that now it's a complete mess and a lot of names missing. and now the subsidies may well, well, i'm an interior point about the names missing jory. there is also the 1900000 hindus who are excluded from the list of before i come to you jury to ask you what is actually being done by the b j. p. lead authorities to actually help these people that are being evicted. i want to take a quick listen to and, and to just demonstrate what the environmental conditions and erosion that we keep referring to in the floods. what the actual cost of that is. this is a clip that shows what's happening just on the other side of the river.
7:52 am
a good oh who we don't care when we're really hurting. it is difficult to get food, drinking water and other essential items. many villages do not have their own boats, so people are suffering more normal. dory, people are suffering. people are being a victim. i want to ask you a very simple question. i hope you can answer me. what is the b j. p government or the, you know, whether the authorities locally doing to help these people they just love it is odd, natural, calamity and this is up there are no problem in the saw. right? because of which people are being actually, you know, they're not getting leaking on. they are getting dislocated from their own places. that's not at all. i'll case we just men made or any, you know, any body has got anything to do about it. but he is, i just want to clear one thing about the bees, it be sure is it is never targeting,
7:53 am
they're not against them. mostly. you know, when it comes to the eviction or the thing i saw, you know, the indigenous muslims, you know, in this, it is as long as muslims are all playing favorite of them action. they have never played out. they have never won against the government because they have come forward and you know, the local authority is that always been in favor of the government? well, so some of the surgery i mean to interrupt you for one reason. one reason i'm just going to interrupt you for one reason, i appreciate these nuances about who's important to but one second one second, i'll go calon please jury. you didn't answer my question, what is the b j. p government doing to help these families and something? yeah, i have 1st of all the name of the, the sharon, molly's, the chief off the state of sam. he has already acknowledged the policy off, lend policy and us on, according to dad, the lender, people who have been evicted, they will be given to echo of land for their own, you know, agriculture publicists. and it is, it does totally
7:54 am
a rehabilitation program is going on with, from the government. and also to have that been given from central government also . and the chief of our state doctor, he meant that the charmaya is already and not, not a big you just for this people. and in fact the at the church which was done that was on gum. and lad, and the people would actually be dislocated from there were actually just so that families. so when it came to reality, yeah, over 20000 people. and that was all of their surprised right on that as well. well, it was not at all. well, jury dury i'm doing, i'm, i'm going to come to you, but very quickly i want to go to you to where one of our commenters actually said crucial to ron, asking, are these evicted people getting judicial support as they don't have any representation? i am from some are you providing as the government, providing judicial support very quickly. yes, of course. of course, of course,
