Assam CM Sarma sparks controversy with Muslim majority prediction
The Statesman Siliguri
|October 11, 2025
Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma on Friday claimed that the Muslim community in Assam is poised to become the largest demographic group in the state, with their population projected to rise to nearly 38 per cent in the upcoming national census.
Speaking at a public meeting in Dibrugarh, Sarma said: “This time, when the census takes place and the results are out, it will be found that the percentage of the Miya community has increased to 38 per cent. If any statistical department makes a projection, it will clearly show that they are set to become the largest community in Assam - and that is the truth."
