” The CAA is for those people who came to India from Pakistan, Afghanistan and Bangladesh before December 31,2014. They we will be granted citizenship and it will not affect the Muslims living in India. The Muslims refugees who came to India from Pakistan, Afghanistan and Bangladesh will not get Indian citizenship. It has nothing to do with the Muslims living in India. While CAA has become a law, NRC has been only announced. It has not became a law yet”, said Syed Ahmed Bukhari.
