Stop speaking lies about CAA: BJP to Opposition leaders

The Hindu  

The BJP on March 13 accused the Opposition parties of stoking communal passion by speaking "lies" about the Citizenship Act, as the Modi government came under attack over its implementation. Former Union Minister and BJP leader Ravi Shankar Prasad hit out at the Opposition leaders including Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal and West Bengal CM Mamata Banerjee for their fierce criticism of the law and maintained that it takes away no Indian's citizenship or job. “Home Minister Amit Shah has made it clear that the CAA is about granting citizenship and takes away no one’s citizenship,” he said. Mr. Kejriwal earlier said the implementation of the Citizenship Amendment Act ahead of the Lok Sabha polls was a "dirty vote bank politics" of the BJP and asserted that people want this law to be repealed.
