Humanitarian decision: Adityanath

UP Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath has welcomed the Centre’s move to announce the implementation of the CAA and thanked Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Union Home Minister Amit Shah for this “humanitarian decision”.

In his message on social media platform X, the chief minister described the decision to implement the Citizenship (Amendment) Act as “historic”.

“The decision to implement the Citizenship (Amendment) Act for the welfare of the pidit manavta (suffering humanity) is historic. This has paved the way for a respectable life for the minority communities suffering from religious brutality in Pakistan, Bangladesh and Afghanistan. Thanks to Prime Minister Narendra Modi ji and thanks to Home Minister Amit Shah ji for this humanitarian decision which brings joy to humanity,” Adityanath said in this post.

“Hearty congratulations to all the brothers and sisters who are going to get the Indian citizenship under this Act,” he added.
