JAMMU, Dec 28: Having lost ground and trust of people in freshly carved out Union Territory of Jammu and Kashmir, certain forces belonging to Congress and National Conference (NC) are trying their best to mislead people and raise unproductive issues just to stay relevant. They, in fact, are merely opposing for the sake of opposition and are even unable to get support of people in their respective constituencies.
This was stated by BJP State Executive Member, Raman Suri, in a statement here, today. He said that CAA and NPR has nothing to do with NRC and no one needs to fear for anything. Only those persecuted in their native countries will be granted citizenship under Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) and no-one is going to be asked to leave the country. It is just Congress and NC which are spreading lies to instigate people for their petty interests, he added.
He said National Population Register (NPR) intends to register every citizen of India and issued a National Identity Card. How is this going to harm anyone who is an Indian, he asked. Similarly, National Register of Citizens (NRC) is a register containing names of all genuine Indian citizens and why should any country not have such an arrangement to check illegal immigrants, he further asked.
He said there’s no link between the CAA or the NPR and the NRC. Those creating unrest in the country at the behest of Congress party are enemies of nation and will not be spared for damaging public properties, he added.
