The Citizenship Amendment Act, or CAA, is a law passed by the Indian Parliament in 2019. It aims to amend the country’s citizenship laws, defines illegal immigrants and lays down the rules and prerequisites for applying for Indian citizenship. It allows minorities of six communities, namely Hindus, Sikhs, Buddhists, Jains, Parsis, and Christians, from India’s neighboring countries — Pakistan, Afghanistan, or Bangladesh — who entered India before 31 December 2014 to get citizenship more easily on the grounds of religious persecution.
The introduction of this bill led to mass protests from students, civil society, and the opposition parties as religion for the first time was made a test of Indian citizenship. The most notable was a 100-plus day protest in Shaheen Bagh, a working-class Muslim neighbourhood in the country’s capital, New Delhi with Muslim women at the forefront of this protest.
Four years after the CAA’s initial introduction and passing, the rules were brought into effect in March 2024.
rather than wasting time, Police should have just encountered them!
Gentlemen from Tilak Marg kindly take note and maybe also revisit the lectures on function of the law and justice arm under Indian Constitution.
The UP govt must seize the culprits’ voter card, Aadhaar card, PAN card, ration card, bank cards, driving licences, passports, and suspend their bank accounts. When the national security is at stake the judiciary must not look into flimsy petitions. The judiciary is not a primary school teacher. If anything, the court must pull up Yogi Adityanath for being too lenient towards Desh Drohi Dal.

I will burn buses, two wheelers, and torch homes and I will not pay for it. Very Good. Well if the Supreme Court allows this, everybody will do damages to National property and there will be no deterrence.
Praiseworthy. The high courts are setting a fine example for the apex court. It recently granted an ex parte stay against a reasoned order of the Karnataka High Court, granting bail to 22 persons wrapped up for sedition in an innocuous school play.
