Mysuru, Dec 26: The protests against CAA and NRC are going on mainly in BJP ruled states and not in non-BJP ruled states, former minister SA Ramadas said on Wednesday, seeking to give the issue a different spin. He said the agitation pattern indicates that the opposition parties are creating ruckus by misleading people about CAA and NRC.

Ramdas, who is BJP MLA from Krishnaraja segment, conducted an awareness programme on CAA and NRC to commemorate former Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee’s birth anniversary.

“The BJP government has enacted amendments to the citizenship law to grant citizenship to religious minorities of Afghanistan, Pakistan and Bangladesh, who had to flee their homeland facing persecution. The opposition is indulging in misinformation and falsehood campaigns about CAA and NRC. The law has nothing against Muslims,” Ramdas said.

Muslim and Jain community leaders too took part in the awareness programme.

Speaking on the rising unrest in the country, Krishnakumar stated that the situation is worrisome. “People are awaiting the day when the tension calms down to peace is established in society,” he added.
