CAA

 

Sources indicate that before the Model Code of Conduct takes effect, the Center would probably publish the CAA of the upcoming Lok Sabha elections in 2024.

Prior to the release of the model code of conduct for the Lok Sabha elections, the Ministry of Home Affairs is scheduled to release the regulations for the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) 2019.

The CAA aims to grant Indian citizenship to persecuted non-Muslim migrants from Bangladesh, Pakistan, and Afghanistan.
According to sources informed of the situation, India Today TV said that the Centre may announce the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) guidelines before the Election Commission of India (ECI) carries out the Model Code of Conduct prior to the Lok Sabha elections.

Reiterating that the Act does not deprive someone of their citizenship because it does not have such a provision, Union Home Minister Amit Shah recently declared that the CAA would be promulgated prior to the Lok Sabha elections.

"They are misleading and inciting (against the CAA) our Muslim brothers." Citizenship by implication (CAA) is solely intended for immigrants to India who fled persecution in Bangladesh, Pakistan, or Afghanistan. Shah declared, "It is not for stealing anyone's Indian citizenship."

Additionally, he claimed that the Congress administration had promised the CAA and charged them with breaking their commitment to grant Indian citizenship to refugees who were being persecuted in the above specified nations.

The code of conduct may probably go into effect at any point in March. The rules are prepared, and a digitally-enabled online portal has already been set up for the entire process.

No additional proof is necessary; applicants only need to indicate the year they entered India without a travel document. 




Asaduddin Owaisi said, "This law is to trouble Muslims," in response to Amit Shah's demand that the CAA be put into effect before to the 2024 Lok Sabha elections.

Although the CAA claims to grant citizenship to oppressed minorities from surrounding nations, Owaisi argues that it does so in a biased manner by excluding Muslims, so weakening India's secular foundation.


AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi has expressed his strong opposition to the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA), calling it discriminatory and based on religion. This comes just a day after Union Home Minister Amit Shah declared that the law will be implemented prior to this year's Lok Sabha elections.

Although the CAA claims to grant citizenship to oppressed minorities from surrounding nations, Owaisi argues that it does so in a biased manner by excluding Muslims, so weakening India's secular foundation.

This law has a religious foundation. We have never opposed the repatriation of Hindus, Sikhs, and other communities from Bangladesh, Pakistan, or Afghanistan to India. Still, one cannot look at the CAA and ignore the NPR and NRC. This bill will cause problems for Muslims, Dalits, and low-income members of many communities," he declared.

The National Population Register (NPR) and the National Register of Citizens (NRC), which Owaisi believes could disproportionately affect Muslims, Dalits, and the economically disadvantaged across various communities, should be taken into consideration alongside the CAA, he has voiced his concerns about. He contends that these actions taken together might cause these populations to become severely disenfranchised and distressed.

The criticism from the AIMIM chief follows Amit Shah's adamant support of the CAA, in which Shah maintained that the act will not be repealed in spite of ongoing demonstrations. In addition, political heavyweights who opposed the CAA, including as Rahul Gandhi, Mamata Banerjee, Akhilesh Yadav, and Mayawati, were challenged to a public debate by Shah.

Owaisi picked up the challenge and invited Shah to have a discussion with him, stating that he was willing to talk about the consequences of the NPR, NRC, and CAA. 

In addition to criticising the BJP's habit of renaming locations and making a pointed allusion to the 'Halwa' ceremony that is customarily held before the Union Budget, he issued his challenge during a rally in the Karimnagar district ahead of the municipal elections. He also questioned the party's commitment to eliminating Islamic influences from Indian culture.

After being passed in December 2019, the law expressly mentions Hindu, Sikh, Jain, Buddhist, Parsi, and Christian communities, while noticeably omitting Muslims. It aims to offer Indian citizenship to persecuted minorities from Pakistan, Bangladesh, and Afghanistan.
