Is there any provision in the bill for converts? It's time to convert to Hinduism. Jai Sri Ram!!
This is selective targeting of India by the US. When Israel passed their nation-state law, there was no threat of sanctions. When our democraticaly elected govt gets this bill passed through a single chamber of parliament (still to get the Rajya Sabha vote and president's signature) with a massive majority and multiple parties in favour, the sole superpower picks on a soft target.
Note that secularism is still part of the unchangeable basic structure of our constitution. All this law does is grant citizenship to certain refugees fleeing religious persecution in neighbouring countries. OTOH, the nation-state bill reaffirmed the religious character of the Israeli state.

Write this in an essay and swarajya will publish it.
A part of me wonders how this kind of stuff happens in countries so large. Look at India, it's HUGE and has several different kinds of climates in it. Surely it should be able to grow enough onions. Similarly Tomatoes are so easy to grow, Pakistan, despite being smaller than India is still a massive country with several different climates - all of which you could grow tomatoes in, yet there is a shortage!https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com...aden-trucks-accident/articleshow/72431181.cms
Onion robbery is now a major criminal offence
It was mostly Patel who was the driver behind the partition bill...which is ironic considering how BJP like him over Nehru.
idk about Indian onions, but Pakistani tomatoes have been a political football for years. I remember during the days of the dictator Pervez Musharraf, there was a tomato shortage and he was telling people to learn to cook without them!
Hinduphobia!

NE people are protesting the extending of any amnesty at all (to Hindus/other non-Muslims).
I just heard the foreign affairs committee statement on tv, hadn't read it first time.
i'm actually angry - the feckers running the govt of the country which did a muslim ban - upheld by their courts! - have the gall to criticise us.
I know. I'd like to see how BJP placates them while showing that they're still sticking up for a Hindu rashtra.
electorally i think they can afford to lose those seats (~25 total seats in NE, of which ~8 are exempt from CAB). CAB protects the bigger prize of Bengal (42 seats).
i'm sure the whole point of this exercise (nrc + cab) is to create uncertainty and fear among muslims. (if there was no cab, that fear might spread to non-muslims too). the nrc is supposed to be done by 2024, that is the date for the next election, and that cannot be a coincidence. beyond the fear, maybe modi wants a few camps to be active and full of muslims as the backdrop to his re-election campaign. something like this. (apart from the ram temple at the babri site of course).

We should just tear up our constitution and write a new one. The first line should say that India is a Hindu nation.
I'm feeling ashamed by this bill.

Its a fecking disgrace this bill. No turning back for India now. Well and truely a fascist country.
Increasing the GDP...
Kashmir model getting implemented in North East.
Managing protests is one thing but whats more worrying is how easily internet is switched off for an entire state without any due process.
Let us thank the SC for ignoring the Kerala HC on this.
Speaking of the SC, any chance this sham bill gets struck down? Legal opinion seems pretty divided from what I read.

video evidence of murderers boasting literally doesnt matter
Law is pretty clear on such things. But then again the law like facts are irrelevant. Check the post on the top of the page.

Bill Passed.
Why Assam & the Northeast are angry over CAB: when ‘outsider’ isn’t necessarily only the Muslim
Control room DGP provided audio recordings. These were deemed unreliable because they were copies on a CD
Another DGP's claims were discarded because he was deemed to be a disgruntled officer
I frankly don't see any non Muslims suffering from this.
In the north east it's all about locals vs outsiders (Bengali), the tensions have nothing to do with religion in that part of the world. The fear is that the massacres will start again against bengalis.
Edit: did you watch the whole video Edgar? Gibe a watch mate becasue the guy explains the situation very well, most north-easters and bengalis will agree I'm sure.
ULFA might just resurrect itself now. Back to the days of militancy.
No internet in 4 states in India: Kashmir, Assam, Tripura and Meghalaya.
Rajasthan also. Apparently they cut off internet because they didn't want students on cheat in some exam.
Don't think Pakistanis are ashamed for the past 70+years to be called as Islamic nation. UK too doesn't feel ashamed to be calling themselves as a Christian nation. Peculiarly some holier than though Indians feel ashamed in calling India a Hindu nation.
If any Muslim country reduce the years to attain citizenship to Muslim refugees by half, will they be called fascist country?
Because it is not?
This is the preamble to the Indian Constitution
