CAA citizenship law
VS Naipaul of Global Hindu Heritage Foundation said that CAA is a law to give citizenship to persecuted minorities in neighboring countries. He said that minorities are persecuted in India's neighboring countries Pakistan, Bangladesh and Afghanistan. The people who came to India fed up with forced conversion, murder, rape and all kinds of atrocities have now got their rights. The Indian government has also said that this law has nothing to do with Indian Muslims. This law provides citizenship to Hindus, Muslims, Sikhs and Parsis who fled from neighboring countries.
