PM Modi's decision is right – Smriti Irani
He said that Hindu, Sikh and Jain communities of countries like Afghanistan, Pakistan and Bangladesh will be given citizenship, this promise was fulfilled by PM Modi. Also attacking TMC, he said that they will try to instigate some communities for vote bank but the whole of India knows that this decision of PM Modi is right.
Mamta Banerjee went on strike
The comments come a day after West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee criticized the Modi government over the CAA notification, alleging that it was an election gimmick and that anyone applying for citizenship under the CAA would be considered “illegal”. Will be termed as “migrant”. Let us tell you that the Central Government had implemented CAA yesterday, which was opposed by Mamata Banerjee. “I doubt its validity,” he said. No clarification has come from the government in this regard. This is a ploy before the elections.
