Assam CM Himanta’s Move To End Namaz Break Triggers Row, All You Need To Know
The Assam government’s recent decision to abolish the two-hour Friday break, previously provided to allow Muslim legislators to offer ‘namaz,’ has sparked significant debate. Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma characterized the break as a "vestige of colonial era" and framed its discontinuation as part of a broader secular reform aimed at modernizing legislative processes. While the move is intended to streamline assembly operations, it has generated controversy. Critics argue that the decision challenges the secular ethos by potentially infringing on religious practices and undermining the inclusive nature of secularism. This development has ignited a wider discussion on balancing secular principles with the accommodation of religious practices in public institutions
Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma has announced that the Assam Assembly will discontinue the two-hour break previously provided on Fridays to allow Muslim legislators to offer ‘namaz’. The new rule will take effect from the next legislative session. The state’s Parliamentary Affairs Minister confirmed that this change aims to streamline legislative proceedings and ensure the assembly runs more efficiently
