Akyab – Hundreds of Buddhist nationalists held street protests in the state capital on Sunday protesting against government plans to give citizneships to a handful of Rohingya Muslims.
Muslim activists have alleged the government plan to provide citizenship to hand picked Rohingyas has long been an eyewash for the sake of the international community, but even this initiative is incurring the wrath of Buddhist nationalist forces.
The protests were led by the Arakan National Party which has a majority in the state.
