Assam CM Himanta Biswa Sarma issued strict guidelines (SoP) regarding Imams on Monday. He said that if any unknown Imam comes to any village, then the information should be given to the police. According to news agency ANI, Assam CM Guwahati said, "We have made some SOP that if any Imam comes to your village and you don't know him then immediately inform the police station." He said that the police will first verify only after that he (Imam) can stay in the village. The CM said, "Our Muslim community of Assam is helping us in this work."
Himanta Biswa Sarma said, “We are also creating a portal for Imams and other people who are coming to the madrasa from outside the state. Those who are from Assam need not register their names in that portal. But people from outside will have to register their names in the portal." These instructions have been issued by the Assam CM at a time when two Islamic clerics (Imams) have been arrested in the state for their involvement in terrorist activities.
The arrested imams are alleged to have been involved in radicalizing Muslim youth in the state. He reportedly has links with the terrorist organization Al-Qaeda (AQIS) in the Indian subcontinent. Recently, Sarma had cited the arrest of five Bangladeshi terrorists from Assam, saying that tech-savvy foreign terrorists were threatening to turn his state into an Islamic hub. Sarma has said that Assam has become a hotbed of "jihadi activities", with five modules linked to Bangladesh-based terror outfit Ansarul Islam.
Chief Minister Sarma had said at a press conference, "Six Bangladeshi nationals belonging to Ansarul Islam had entered Assam to educate the youth and one of them was arrested in March this year after the first module was found in Barpeta. " Himanta Biswa Sarma said, “The teaching of Muslim youths in private madrasas by imams from outside the state is worrying.”
