The Bharatiya Janata Party is known for its strong nature and the party doesn't like to take a back step on any issue no matter what. But the party surprised many by rolling back the controversial agriculture bills after the whole farmer community sat on the road to protest.
As the three bills The Farmers' Produce Trade and Commerce (Promotion and Facilitation) Act, The Farmers (Empowerment and Protection) Agreement of Price Assurance and Farm Services Act, and The Essential Commodities (Amendment) Act were canceled many felt that the union government might also take back the controversial Citizenship (Amendment) Act.
Union Home Minister Amit Shah who is known for being the troubleshooter in the Bharatiya Janata Party has made some sensational comments on the CAA and made it clear that it will not be canceled no matter what. He said it will be a dream to think CAA will be taken back.
Amit Shah graced the Times Now Summit the other day. Host Navika Kumar asked about CAA and NRC and asked why there is a delay in implementing the exercise and also raised doubt on whether the ideas were taken back.
But Amit Shah said there is no rollback of the two exercises. Saying that CAA is a law and the rules under it should be framed. Giving the Covid outbreak as a reason, the Union Home Minister said the exercise was just delayed. Those who think that the exercise will be taken back are just dreaming.
"CAA, NRC has not been put in the cold storage. CAA is a law, and it cannot be changed now, we have to frame rules, these got delayed due to Covid-19 but the work will soon begin. No one should even dream that CAA will not be implemented. Those who think like that are mistaken," Amit Shah said.
The Citizenship (Amendment) Act, 2019 proposed by the Union government aims at granting citizenship to minorities in our neighbouring countries minorities from Afghanistan, Bangladesh, and Pakistan. The minorities include Hindus, Sikhs, Buddhists, Jains, Parsis, and Christians. They should have arrived in India before 2014. After the Act was announced India saw intense protests.
