anti-CAA movement

The anti-CAA movement protests against the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) enacted by India in 2019. The CAA provides a pathway to Indian citizenship for non-Muslim minorities from neighboring countries, but critics argue it discriminates against Muslims and undermines India's secular principles. Protesters fear the law could lead to communal divisions and marginalize minority communities. The movement involves widespread demonstrations, emphasizing the importance of equal rights and constitutional values. Supporters of the law believe it offers refuge to persecuted minorities, but the protests highlight concerns over religious discrimination and the impact on India’s secular fabric.
