Amit Shah on his visit to West Bengal for two days. In his interaction with the people, he mentioned that the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) will be upheld when the COVID-19 pandemic moves past and gets over. and charging the Trinamool Congress decision on the condition of spreading rumours about the focal regulation.
Quoting him “Mamata Banerjee wants illegal infiltration to continue while refugees languish. We will not let this happen. TMC is spreading rumours about CAA, saying it will not be enforced. I promise you today that once the coronavirus pandemic ends, we will enforce it in Bengal. We will ensure that refugees from Bangladesh get Indian citizenship. It is a matter of months. It was real, it is reality, and it will be a reality. “
To which she reverted and said he was misleading people by spreading false information. “He comes and makes the same promise over and over again. I have said it is not necessary because all Bengalis are Indian citizens. “
In December 2019, the parliament passed the CAA. The CAA permits non-Muslim minorities in Pakistan, Bangladesh, and Afghanistan—Hindu, Sikh, Jain, Buddhist, Parsi, and Christian—to obtain Indian citizenship to get away from oppression in their nations of origin. Under the Act, individuals from these networks who came to India before December 31, 2014, won’t be treated as unlawful migrants and will be given Indian citizenship.
West Bengal was one of the states that passed a goal against the CAA.
Later in the speech, he added about how the prices of petrol and diesel are higher here as compared to the states ruled by the Bharatiya Janta Party and the reason is that West Bengal’s CM Mamata Banerjee is not reducing local levies on fuel.
And to that, Mamata Banerjee responded, “It is the Centre that is increasing fuel prices every day. It is looting common people. “
Later, he questions, “Did you send fact-finding teams to Birbhum, where eight women were burnt alive, or to Nadia, where a minor girl was raped?”
While answering his reference to crimes in Bengal, the CM said, referring to the communal violence that took place in Jahangirpuri recently, “He is not the home minister of Bengal. Law and order are state subjects. As India’s home minister, he should focus on the violence at Jahangirpuri in Delhi.”Â
At the BJP rally, Shah addressed the Gorkha community without referring to their demand for a separate state of Gorkhaland and said, “Didi misleads our Gorkha brothers and sisters. Only the BJP feels for them. We will solve all their problems according to the provisions of the Constitution. “Didi, holding the GTA (Gorkha Territorial Administration) elections will not solve the problems.”
