On Citizenship amendment Bill Tolum said that  we have send letter to Chairman, Joint Parliamentary Committee on Citizenship (Amendment) Bill 2016  Rajendra Agrawal and have  expressed our resentment for not visiting our state for public hearing on CAB-2016  spelt out the precarious demography, unique identity and socio-cultural ethos of the state, infested with Chakma and Hajong Refugees.

The refugees have been dumped in the state without any consultation to the people by the Government of India and hence, in the interest of our future generation, we decided to ‘give our today for our future’ and thus, vehemently oppose implementation of Citizen (Amendment) Bill 2016 in Arunachal Pradesh for its anti-tribal and anti-indigenous nature of policy.
