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.
Good step. People are not prisoners of the national government. Protest without inviting for violence is a fundamental right on democracy survives. Starts debate, brings change.

Goog dececion by UN…
Why is this silly story under “Top Story”? What rubbish.
The real top story is the expose of Congress corruption, the slush funds in Rajiv Gandhi Family Trust, the secret MoU between Congress and China Communist Party and the siphoning of Indian tax payer funds into the personal coffers of Rahul Gandhi, Madam Gandhi & the Vadras.
This is the real top story – but of course, The Print prefers a whitewash.
UN has no jurisdiction in internal matters of India. First UN should get the Uighur Muslims in China freed and govern their own country.
UN should look into its own credibility before poking in the nose of others. Simply tabloid and social media representations do not reflect the gravity of the situation and are better known to the authorities. Meanwhile the right to protest is still there but the law of the land clearly mentions that any damage to civil properties, government properties or private properties in the garb of protests shall be penalized, as these are raised from tax payers money and savings in case of private ones. This law is in force since the UPA government so there should be no doubt over it.
Mr. Taran Deol you might be peddler of freedom of speech, secularism etc. but Indian citizens like me have seen ample evidence of hate speech and are convinced the breaking India strategy these communist hatemonger students have been advocating backed by breaking India media channels like Quint, Mojo, The Print etc. What is the UN opinion on the Kashmiri Pandits genocide and recently the murder of Ajay Pandita a Hindu from Kashmir? We had enough of your deceit and hoodwinking justifying your human rights cry. Proof is Islamic radicals are hell bent on either converting or breaking India and also useless people like you are covering up their nuisances and giving it a humanitarian reasoning. All Indians who understand CAA & importance of NRC support.
Who is UN to micromanage India?
UN is anti-national …lol !!!
