People need not worry about the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) and the National Register of Citizens (NRC), said Union Minister Gaggan Singh Kulaste speaking at the BJP’s Jan Jagran Abhiyan campaign in support of the Act in Mahakalapada on Sunday.
“Various political parties are carrying out violent protests against the CAA across the country to fulfil their narrow political interests. People should not be worried about NRC because as of now there is no discussion in this regard,” he said.
“Some people are trying to spread misinformation for political gains. If they want to speak about CAA, they should organise peaceful discussions on CAA instead of NRC,” Kulaste added.
BJP national spokesperson Rajiv Pratap Rudy, who also attended a meeting of the Abhijan at Puri said, “Some people are trying to mislead the nation on the CAA, but they will never succeed. And there is no question of the law being withdrawn.”
