BuzzBytes JAMMU12 March 2024: Kavinder Gupta, a senior BJP leader and former Deputy Chief Minister, has accused NC leader Omar Abdullah of politicizing the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) for personal gain. Gupta asserted that Omar’s attempt to communalize the CAA is aimed at exploiting communal sentiments rather than understanding the genuine intent of the legislation.In a statement issued today, Gupta emphasized that the implementation of the CAA is driven by principles of justice and humanitarianism, not religious bias. He stated, “It is disappointing to see Omar trying to create division by alleging that the CAA targets Muslims. The CAA aims to provide refuge and support to persecuted minorities from neighboring countries based on humanitarian grounds, not religion.””Contrary to Omar Abdullah’s claims, the BJP has always been inclusive and worked for the welfare of all communities. The Party’s intentions are focused on the nation’s well-being and progress without bias or prejudice,” he added.Gupta highlighted that the implementation of the CAA by the Ministry of Home Affairs reflects the strong commitment of the PM Modi-led BJP government at the Centre towards upholding basic humanitarian values and principles to safeguard the lives of thousands and lakhs of Indians living in countries mentioned under the Act.”The CAA is a necessary step towards ensuring justice and protection for those who have faced persecution. The Party will continue to work tirelessly to create an inclusive and harmonious India where every citizen’s rights are respected,” Gupta concluded.The statement comes amid ongoing debates and discussions surrounding the CAA, with various political leaders expressing differing views on its implications and implementation.
