NEW DELHI: Union home minister Amit Shah on Thursday asserted that the Citizenship Amendment Act(CAA) would never be taken back and rejected oppositions’s charge that “CAA is unconstitutional”. He further dismissed any provision on detention camps in the Act.
In an interview to ANI, Shah said, “This is our sovereign right to ensure Indian citizenship in our country, we will never compromise on it and CAA will never be taken back.”
Dismissing the claim that “CAA is unconstitutional”, Shah said, “They always talk about Article 14.
They forget that there are two clauses in that Article. This law does not violate Article 14. There is a clear, reasonable classification here.”
