What Shantanu Thakur has claimed about CAA?
According to sources when the Citizenship Amendment Bill (CAA) was passed in december 2019, the fire of protests that erupted after that, it seemed that it would be implemented at that very moment. However, it was then felt that elections were near and hence there was a delay in its implementation. Such matters are particularly sensitive and have an impact on voting and also on the quality and process of voting. Well, it is not surprising that this law will be implemented in a week, because it had to be implemented. It was passed. Yes, it is true that the way it was expected that it would be implemented in those days, it could not be implemented. Then, after this, one thing is certain that looking at the way the protests started from Jamia Millia and its surrounding areas, we can say that once again the protests will intensify and the political polarization that occurs because of it, That will also be fast, but it's better late than never.
However, if the minority and especially the Muslim community is facing a lot of problems then the government must have made that assessment. This decision must have been taken only after this, because it will have the biggest impact on West bengal and Assam.
Moreover rajasthan and delhi will also be affected to some extent, because here too Hindu refugees from pakistan are waiting for their citizenship, which was raising their hopes after CAA. However, the impact is more in West bengal and Assam, so there will be politics there too, but this is a right decision taken late. Since elections are near, this decision had to be taken and it was inevitable.
