The ongoing protests against the controversial Citizenship Amendment Act(CAA) continue to hit the headlines. The BJP is targeting the people who are supporting these protests. When Bollywood actress Deepika supported these protests Smiri Irani said Deepika should watch carefully whom she is supporting.

In this list, Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella joins now. Responding to these statements, Satya said "CAA is just bad for India" to which BJP MP Meenakshi Lekhi gave a befitting reply.

The MP took to Twitter to counter the CEO's statements."Precise reason for CAA to grant opportunities to persecuted minorities from Bangladesh, Pakistan and Afghanistan."How about granting these opportunities to Syrian Muslims instead of Yezidis in USA?" read her Tweet.

It all started with the CEO saying, "I think what is happening is sad...It's just bad...I would love to see a Bangladeshi immigrant who comes to India and creates the next unicorn in India or become the next CEO of Infosys."

After facing wrath he made changes in his statements and said, "Every country will and should define its borders, protect national security and set immigration policy accordingly. And in democracies, that is something that the people and their governments will debate and define within those bounds".

"I'm shaped by my Indian heritage, growing up in a multicultural India and my immigrant experience in the United States. My hope is for an India where an immigrant can aspire to find a prosperous start-up or lead a multinational corporation benefitting Indian society and the economy at large," he added.
