The correct answer is: All of the above.
Protests against the Chakma and Hajong refugee settlement in Arunachal Pradesh have raised concerns about demographic changes, competition for resources, and threats to tribal identity.
- Demographic changes
The Chakma and Hajong refugees are ethnic groups from Bangladesh. They were displaced from their homes in the 1960s and 1970s due to flooding and violence. The Indian government granted them asylum in Arunachal Pradesh. However, their settlement in the state has been met with protests from local tribal groups. The protesters argue that the Chakma and Hajong refugees are changing the demographic balance of the state and are a threat to the culture and identity of the indigenous people.
- Competition for resources
The Chakma and Hajong refugees are also accused of competing with the local tribal groups for resources such as land, water, and forest produce. The protesters argue that the refugees are taking away resources that are rightfully the property of the indigenous people.
- Threats to tribal identity
The settlement of the Chakma and Hajong refugees has also been seen as a threat to the tribal identity of the indigenous people of Arunachal Pradesh. The protesters argue that the refugees are bringing their own culture and language to the state and are diluting the unique culture and identity of the indigenous people.
The protests against the Chakma and Hajong refugee settlement in Arunachal Pradesh have been going on for many years. The government has tried to address the concerns of the protesters, but the issue remains unresolved.
