GUWAHATI: Addressing a public meeting at Moirabari, AIUDF MLA Aminul Islam said that Ahoms are not indigenous people in Assam.

Islam said that Bengali-speaking Miya Muslims who migrated from East Pakistan or erstwhile Bengal province belong to the indigenous community of Assam.
“Our ancestors came from a district which was a part of undivided India. Why we are not indigenous?” Islam further added.
