Complicated decision
The decision of the government of Arunachal to adopt Tibetan Rehabilitation Policy Act for Tibetans living in the state is being opposed by the people of Arunachal. The Central Government had formalized the Act in 2014. Arunachal has followed the state of Uttarakhand and Himachal Pradesh who has already adopted this act. Tibetans along with Chakma and Hajong consist biggest block of refugees living in Arunachal. There are several Tibetan settlements across the state and they are provided with health care and educational facilities by state as well as central government. Also they receives massive donation from countries across the world. With the adoption of Tibetan Rehabilitation Policy Act, the Tibetans will be eligible to get trading license and also apply for the government jobs.
Therefore the decision to adopt this policy has potential to cause major socio-

The GSU alleged that after being repeatedly provoked by the government officials from Nari ADC administration, there was heated exchange of words leading to the officials ordering lathi charge on the peaceful protesters and subsequent firing of 50 to 60 rounds by the security forces.
However, official sources informed this daily that they did not send falsified reports to the state government. It was informed that the Tala Bandi Andolan was in place from Monday, and officials attended their offices even if it was in the evening, after the protestors had left the office premises.
"We were stopped from entering our offices in the day time, but we did attend and work in the evenings even if for a few hours, so the reports sent are not false", the official said.
Sources also claimed that the security forces were ordered to disperse the crowd after the protestors got aggravated on the issue and started to pelt stones towards the office building.
"The police forces resorted to lathi charge after the protestors took to pelting stones", the sources said, adding that the protestors assaulted the government officials and damaged their vehicles.
"Rounds were fired as a last resort to disperse the crowd and avoid any further damage or assault", the source said, and informed that they do not have the exact number of shots fired yet.
Reportedly, eight persons have been detained by the police in this connection.
The organisations maintained that some unidentified miscreants took advantage of the situation and damaged the vehicles of the EAC and WRD department.
They strongly condemned the Nari ADC administration for allegedly using excessive force on the protestors and common denizens of Nari Township.

PPA, GAF against Tibetan Rehabilitation Policy Act
ATDSU threatens democratic movement
ITANAGAR, Aug 23: Expressing serious concern at the decision of the state government to implement the Tibetan Rehabilitation Policy Act (TRPA), 2014 in the state, the People's Party of Arunachal (PPA) in its executive meeting on Wednesday unanimously decided to fight tooth and nail against the cabinet decision.
The PPA said that it took this decision to preserve the sanctity and spirit of the Bengal Eastern Frontier Regulation Act (BEFRA), 1873, which clearly made Inner Line Permits mandatory for outsiders entering Arunachal Pradesh.
Condemning the cabinet decision as unpopular and undemocratic, the PPA said that that such a decision is highly detrimental to the future generation of the state.
"This issue needs to be widely discussed and debated among various civil societies, students' organizations, all political parties and PRI leaders in the state. It should be discussed in the state Assembly also", the PPA said.
Giving jobs in health and other social sectors to the Tibetans as per TRPA, 2014 is simply dangerous for the state, the party said, adding "Tibetans cannot be given any special category status in the state just because the Chief Minister has an extra soft corner for them."
The people of the state must also recall the mass Referendum Rally on Chakma refugees
in 1995, wherein it was unanimously resolved to treat the sympathizers of the refugees
as foes of the state and to be ex-

Meanwhile, the All Tawang District Student's Union (ATDSU) also objected to government's decision to implement the Tibetan Rehabilitation Policy Act and demanded its immediate roll back.
All Arunachal Pradesh Students' Union (AAPSU) leader Koncho Tashi said that the 'hasty' decision taken by the government would snatch employment opportunities from the local people and also pose threat to other economic activities of the local people.
"Tawang is a district with cent per cent followers of Buddha. We respect the Buddhist community residing within the district, but certain terms of the policy may endanger the rights of indigenous community", said ATDSU President Mindu Tsering,
The union decided to launch democratic movement, if the decision was not revoked immediately.
The Green Arunachal Foundation (GAF) has also condemned the state cabinet decision to implement the Tibetan Rehabilitation Policy Act and termed it immature and irresponsible.
While expressing solidarity with the AAPSU and other civil society bodies, the GAF
also urged the state government not to indulge in anti-
Alleging that state government has accorded APST status to numerous Tibetan refugees of Shyo village in Tawang district, the GAF said such status and benefits provided to the refugees should be withdrawn.
"These refugees have been allotted land and are enjoying all the benefits meant for the local indigenous people of the state," GAF Chairman Takam Tatung said in a release.
Further, GAF appealed to the former AAPSU leaders who are in the state cabinet at present to act wisely and understand the crux of the refugee problem in the state.
"The former AAPSU leaders should best understand the problems faced by Arunachal
