It's good that AGP is protesting against the Central government's move to grant Indian citizenship to Pakistani and Bangladeshi migrants but what have AGP done when you ruled for two terms. AGP would have done more for Assam but the leaders are hopeless and useless who have betrayed the masses of Assam.
