The anti-foreigner movement in Assam from 1979 to 1985 mobilised all sections of Assamese people, drawing support across the state eventually after six years of turmoil, the Rajiv Gandhi-led government entered into negotiations with the AASU leaders, leading to the signing of an accord in 1985. According to this agreement those foreigners who migrated into Assam during and after Bangladesh war and since, were to be identified and deported.
The Assam accord did not solve the problem of immigration. The issue of the 'outsiders' continues to be a live issue in the politics of Assam and many other places in the North-East. This problem is particularly acute, for example, in Tripura as the original inhabitants have been reduced to being a minority in their own land. (Statement 2 can be eliminated if you know the map of north-east Indian region).
