Modi on Sunday said that a batch of 300 people has already received citizenship through the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) and that people of West Bengal will also receive citizenship in the coming days while attacking the Trinamool Congress for opposing the CAA.
«CAA is for giving citizenship to Hindu, Sikh, Buddhist, Jain, Parsi and Christians who fled religious persecution in Pakistan, Afghanistan and Bangladesh,» Modi said. «People have lost faith in TMC...Trinamool has raised questions about the character of women in Sandeshkhali. Women will reply through votes and take every revenge against the torture through votes,» Modi said at public rallies in tribal dominated Purulia and Bishnupur today.
«Trinamool came to power with the slogan 'Ma, Mati and Manush' (Mother, land and people) and today they are exploiting the Ma, Mati and Manush.»
«In order to save Sheikh Shahjahan, Trinamool is pointing fingers towards the characters of Sandeshkhali women...First Trinamool committed the sin and then they tried to save the culprits,» Modi said.
