# 41 years after Assam Accord, key clauses still await implementation 2026-08-15T17:47:36+00:00 | Politics | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 1 independent outlet The Assam Tribune reports that 41 years after the Assam Accord was signed, its key clauses remain unimplemented. The most important provision, detection and deportation of foreigners from the state, has seen slow progress, with only a limited number of deportations carried out so far. The AASU chief adviser has demanded a time-bound plan to address infiltration and demographic changes. The National Register of Citizens (NRC), prepared in 2019 to identify foreigners, has not satisfied any stakeholder. The Accord was signed in 1985 to end a six-year agitation, but implementation has lagged, leaving the core issue of illegal immigration unresolved according to the outlet. ## Coverage - assamtribune.com This story was synthesised by AI from the source linked above.
