Now the question is WOULD CAA HAVE HELPED VICTIMS OF SANDESHKHALI?
In one of the reports by Indiatoday, it is explained how would the CAA have helped empower the Hindu victims of Sandeshkhali?
The people who inhabit the Sundarban area belong to the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes, who might not have an idea of the social contract, that is, their relation with the state.
Thousands of people have crossed over to India at different times, since the creation of Bangladesh. Hindus and other minorities have long-faced religious persecution in Bangladesh.
Now CAA will be grant Indian citizenship to. Those who have entered India on or before the cut-off date of December 31, 2014, will be eligible for Indian citizenship.
Though CAA still awaits implementation, but the law when implemented, will grant Indian citizenship to non-Muslim migrants who faced religious persecution in Bangladesh, Pakistan and Afghanistan.
Meanwhile, a delegation of the National Commission for Women (NCW) led by its chairperson Rekha Sharma is scheduled to visit unrest-hit region today.
Last week two members of NCW had visited the area and submitted a report revealing a “troubling pattern of negligence and complicity” by the Bengal government and law enforcement officials.
