Asaduddin Owaisi Terms CAA As ‘Unconstitutional’
Hyderabad, Jan 4 (Maxim News): AIMIM President and Hyderabad MP Asaduddin Owaisi termed the Citizenship amendment Act (CAA) as’ unconstitutional’, saying this law was made based on religion.
He told media persons here, that CAA must be read with and understood by NPR-NRC, which will lay down the conditions to prove citizenship. “If that happens, it will be a grave injustice, especially to the Muslims, Dalits and the poor people of India, irrespective of the caste or religion they belong to, ” he said.
The Hyderabad MP was reacting to media reports that the Centre is ready with the CAA rules and is likely to implement them much before the Lok Sabha elections. The CAA, which was passed in 2019, is aimed at conferring Indian citizenship to persecuted non-Muslim migrants from Bangladesh, Pakistan and Afghanistan, who entered India on December 31, 2014. This was meant only for migrants belonging to Hindu, sikh, Jain, Buddhist, Parsi and Christian Communities. Enactment of the law in early 2020 triggered massive protests by the Muslim community and opposition parties, who demanded the rollback of the discriminatory law.
Last month, Union Home Minister Amit Shah stated that no one can stop the implementation of CAA, as it is the law and land
Owaisi also demanded Prime Minister Narendra Modi to spell out his stand on the statement of his Cabinet minister Giriraj singh that Ram temple is only the beginning. “The Prime Minister should tell the country whether his minister is speaking the truth and whether Kashi, Mathura, Teli Wali Masjid, sunheri Masjid and 30,000 to 35,000 mosques in RSS list be taken away, ” he said.
