Amit Shah, India’s Union Home Minister, attacked the opposition in a statement condemning the implementation of the CAA 2019
Amit Shah, the Union Home Minister of India, attacked the opposition with his attacking statement over the condemnation of implementing CAA 2019 as he stated CAA Won’t Be Taken Back in response to the ‘Anti-Muslim Law’. He also added in an interview that the CAA law will never be taken back. It is India’s sovereign right to ensure Indian citizenship in the country; we will never compromise on it.
Amit Shah also added that nobody can see this law in isolation. In 1947, partition was done based on religion. Congress leaders at the time had said that people who migrated could come back anytime. But due to appeasement politics, Congress never fulfilled its promise when he was asked about the anti-Muslim rhetoric being raised by the opposition and the foreign media. He added more: Even Muslims have the right to apply for citizenship. The doors have not been closed for anyone. This special act has been made because people have come without any documents.
The Citizenship (Amendment) Act, 2019 (CAA) was implemented on Monday by the Central Government, but right after the law was issued, many opposition parties started to condemn the act and targeted Prime Minister Narendra Modi, saying that he was doing it to get an advantage in the upcoming 2024 Lok Sabha election. The Trinomool Congress superior and West Bengal’s Chief Minister, Mamata Banarjee, stated that the CAA is linked with the National Register of Citizens.
In response to such criticism, Amit Shah stated, “Unki history hai jo bolte hai woh karte nahi hai, Modi ji ki history hai jo BJP ya PM Modi ne kaha woh patthar ki lakeer hai. Modi ki har guarantee poori hoti hai.”
