The Citizenship Debate In Assam As Centre Notifies CAA
The government on Monday notified the rules for the Citizenship (Amendment) Act to fast-track citizenship for persecuted non-Muslim migrants from Pakistan, Bangladesh and Afghanistan who came to India before December 31, 2014. Those opposed to the CAA in Assam feel it will dilute the Assam accord but the big question is will the CAA benefit the Hindus who are among the 19 lakh people who did not make it to the NRC. NDTV's Ratnadip Choudhury spoke to Guwahati high court lawyer Aman Wadud who has been for years following the legal implications of Assam's citizenship debate.
