Union home minister Amit Shah on Tuesday slammed the Congress for opposing the Citizenship (Amendment) Act, or CAA, saying that their opposition towards it is due to “appeasement” and “vote-bank politics”. Amit Shah’s comments come a day after the Centre implemented CAA and notified its rules more than four years after the parliament passed the legislation in December 2019.

Shah, speaking at the social media warriors’ meet in Hyderabad’s Secunderabad, also praised Prime Minister Narendra Modi over the implementation of CAA.

“PM Modi honoured Hindu, Sikh, Buddhist, and Jain refugees through CAA,” he said.

The Congress on Monday lashed out at the Modi government for notifying CAA, questioning the timing of the move that came ahead of the Lok Sabha elections. Congress general secretary Jairam Ramesh said that the “time taken to notify the rules for the CAA is yet another demonstration of the Prime Minister’s blatant lies”.
