As the crow flies, through hedge and ditch, the homophonic equivalent of the raven바카라s call is on the nation바카라s lips. But it바카라s a divisive cry, prefixed pro or anti. Patriot or traitor, depending on the side one takes. It바카라s CAA, more of a caw. And everyone has a crow to pluck, even an open university in Prayagraj, nee Allahabad. It has started a three-month certificate course to spread awareness about CAA and 바카라clear the fog바카라 around it. 바카라We want the intent of the government and Parliament to reach the people in a credible and verifiable manner. In addition, we want to put to rest misconceptions and the babble around it. It바카라s a law to give citizenship, not take it away,바카라 says Kameshwar Nath Singh, vice chancellor of Uttar Pradesh Rajarshi Tandon Open University.
Who Will Eat Crow?
Yes, CAA바카라short for the Citizenship (Amendment) Act바카라will make persecuted non-Muslims from three neighbouring countries Indian citizens. Understood. It is also understood that Assam was up with the crows in protest against CAA when it was passed last December as it feared immigrants바카라 mostly from Bangladesh바카라will swamp the state. And it already is grappling with the burden of illegal immigration.
But the rest of the country? Well, ask a protestor바카라the 바카라anti-national바카라바카라and he tells you CAA pecks at the secular framework of our Constitution, adopted on January 26, 1950, and whose 70th birthday we바카라re celebrating this Republic Day. The Supreme Court recognises the 바카라difference바카라 as it agreed to hear Assam and Tripura separately from a batch of petitions challenging CAA바카라s constitutional validity. Also, it refused to stay CAA and asked for a government response in four weeks. And it didn바카라t stay the NRC/NPR exercise either, stoking more fear among a section of Indians being stripped of their citizenship.
So, CAA, after all, is complicated? There are critical views. Will those find place in the open university바카라s course? Vice chancellor Singh responds: 바카라Laws aren바카라t made on streets or protest sites. They are made in Parliament. It바카라s when good things reach there, Parliament passes them.바카라 As for now, people are reaching protest sites. Like Congress바카라s Digvijaya Singh called on the women in Delhi바카라s Shaheen Bagh, who have been leading a sit-in for over a month. Elsewhere, CAA is suffixed바카라 CAA, CAA, Chhi, Chhi!
