Actor Dia Mirza stands up for secularism.
My mother is a Hindu, my biological father was a Christian, my adopted father – a Muslim. In all official documents, my religion status stays blank. Does religion determine I am an Indian? It never did and I hope it never does. #OneIndia #India

Congress’ Priyanka Gandhi resolves for a stronger resistance, but wait, where is her brother?
The voice of a people cannot be silenced by force. Every time force is applied to dominate and rule, every time you beat and suppress, every time you push people to the wall, they will rise up stronger, their resolve will strengthen and their voice will grow louder.. 1/2

BJP’s Manoj Tiwari thinks Muslims have misconceptions about the CAA.
CAA पर वर्तमान घटनाओं से हमें गहरा दुख हुआ है। भारत का कोई भी नागरिक कहीं भी नहीं भेजा जाएगा। यह देश हर भारतीय का है

Too much trolling, Mrs. Gandhi?

BJP’s Amit Malviya turns to history to prove his claims about the citizenship Act.
In this dated interview, India’s first PM Jawaharlal Nehru accedes that Congress agreed for the partition and allowed Muslims to have their own homeland.
If it is so, then how can they now claim that Muslims in Islamic Republic of Pakistan and Bangladesh are being persecuted? pic.twitter.com/rdJy5g3rKA
