The authorities on March 11 carried out the Citizenship (Amendment) Act, 2019, notifying the principles to fast-track citizenship for undocumented non-Muslim migrants from Pakistan, Bangladesh and Afghanistan who got here to India earlier than December 31, 2014.

Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal mentioned, “What is this CAA? BJP Government at the Centre says that if minorities from three countries — Bangladesh, Pakistan and Afghanistan — want to get Indian citizenship, they will be granted the same. It means that a large number of minorities will be brought to our country. They will be given jobs and houses will be built for them.”

The money of the Government of India that should be used for the development of our families and the country will be used for the settlement of Pakistanis.”
