New Delhi: Home Minister Amit Shah on Wednesday tabled the Citizenship (Amendment) Bill in the Rajya Sabha.
While introducing the bill, Shah said “Misinformation has been spread that this bill is against Muslims of India. I want to ask the people saying this that how is this bill related to Indian Muslims? The Muslims in India are our citizens, they won’t be tortured. What do you want – all the Muslims coming from all over the world should be given Indian citizenship? This is not possible. The minorities are being persecuted in these three countries, that is why we have included only these countries.”
“No Muslim in India needs to worry due to this bill. Don’t get scared if someone tries to scare you. This is Narendra Modi’s government working according to Constitution, minorities will get full protection,” Shah added.
“Indian Muslims are safe,” Shah assured in the Rajya Sabha.
