50-yr-old Dulon Das becomes first in Assam to get citizenship under CAA

Quick Summary:

Dulon Das (50) has become the first person in Assam to receive citizenship under the Citizenship (Amendment) Act (CAA), sparking strong reactions from opposition parties and student groups.

He did not apply for the National Register of Citizens (NRC) but managed to obtain various government documents, including a voter card, driving licence and PAN and Aadhaar cards, despite his illegal status, one of his kin alleged.

During the application process, Das provided a land deed from his father, who had purchased land in Sylhet district in 1986.
