ALL ABOUT INDIA'S CITIZENSHIP ACT - CAA, NPR, NCR,: 071 - Delhi presses button; Not Shah-een Bagh but Shah-Modi feel the current ,

“In matters of conscience, the law of the majority has no place.” ― Mahatma Gandhi.

Religion has no place in Governance in a Democracy, unless it is a Democracy where "All People are Equal but Some People are More Equal than Others".

When the law was made in 1950 then it was clearly mentioned in the Indian Constitution how citizenship will be given to anyone who was born here. Anyone who has lived here for 11 years will get citizenship whether Hindu, Sikh, Christian or Muslim."

What is Sad is in a War no side will agree it is at fault. All this violence and bloodshed in the name of God and Religion and we are all victims as we are born into one religion or the other for no fault of ours. Religious Conflict is the main reason why the world is in such mess in 2020 ? Chaaha Hai Kya ? Paaya Hai Kya? Just pain and misery. Sad world we live in. Can Gods not take the responsibility and resolve this feud between themselves. Australian Fires brought the people together CAA fires have divided the Nation on religious grounds. Sad but True.

New Delhi: As Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal and his Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) swept away the Delhi election; pictures of a poster clicked outside the AAP headquarters in Delhi are doing rounds on social media.

The poster shows a picture of Home Minister Amit Shah and the caption, “Current Laga Kya? (did you feel the current)” This is being presumed as a jibe to the Home Minister’s comments during an election rally at Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium in January of this year. While on the election train, Shah asked his electorate to press the electronic voting machine (EVM) button so hard that the current would move to Shaheen Bagh where protests are on the verge of entering day-60.

Sitting AAP MLA from Okhla constituency, Amanatullah Khan told media persons today, “Delhi ki janata ne aaj BJP aur Amit Shah ji ko current lagane ka kaam kiya hai, ye kaam ki jeet huyi aur nafrat ki haar.” This translates to the people of Delhi have done the deed of passing current to Mr Amit Shah and the BJP, adding that this is a win for work and a loss for hatred. Referring to his own constituency and vote margin, Khan said that it is not him but the voters who broke the record.

Several of the Bharatiya Janata Party’s legislators and cabinet ministers attempted to invoke public sentiment by referring to the protest site in Delhi’s Okhla constituency where women and children have been sitting in protest against the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) and the National People’s Register (NPR) and the National Register of Citizens (NRC).

Other leaders such as Minister of State (MoS) for Finance, Anurag Thakur and Parvesh Verma also made comments during the election campaign that were marred with controversy. During his address to the Rajya Sabha, AAP Member of Parliament (MP) Sanjay Singh had questioned Home Minister Amit Shah’s “terrorist” jibe at sitting Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal who is set to return to a second term in power. Singh maintained that the AAP ran an issue-based campaign that focused on basic necessities such as water, electricity, education and healthcare. He also stressed the party’s proposal to award a compensation of ₹1 crore to the families of martyred soldiers.
