AGP has been criticised across the state for its lone MP in the Rajya Sabha Birendra Prasad Baishya voting in favour of the Citizenship Amendment Bill after speaking against it in Parliament.
AGP in the meeting have also planned to meet Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Home Minister Amit Shah over the issue.
On the basis of the historic Assam Movement, there have been calls for re-visiting the National Register of Citizens with 1951 as the base year.
The Citizenship (Amendment) Bill is part of a cynical exercise to consolidate the Hindu vote
"There is nothing to worry about the Citizenship Bill or 10 per cent quota for the poor among the general category,” said Madhav.
AGP’s departure is unlikely to weaken the NDA government in the state since the BJP alone has 60 seats in the 126-member legislative assembly.
If the Centre does not handle issues arising out of the controversial Citizenship Bill adroitly, the backlash could affect India's Act East policy initiative.
