Misinterpretation OR Misinformation

 This is in reaction to a news article I read yesterday. The article claimed several violations of the law, viz. Citizenship Act, 1955 while rules wee framed under Citizenship Amendment Act, 2019 (CAA, 2019).

I took my time to read the provisions of the law and the rules. I have found that the claim of the article about illegal immigrants was outrageous as the law has clearly spoken if the targeted beneficiaries could be called illegal immigrants. 

Before going into the details, I better share the link to the news article: 

https://indianexpress.com/article/opinion/columns/caa-will-not-help-persecuted-hindus-sikhs-from-neighbouring-countries-9222168/

In a long video I have explained my reasons why I think the claims in the news article is outrageous. Those are as follows:

• Legislatures (Parliament/ State Assemblies through its members) make laws

• .Judiciary (the judges in the courts of law) interprets the laws (through verdicts/ rulings/ guidelines/ observations),

• Executive (departments of Union and State Governments) implement the law by deriving rules from the laws.

Thus rules which are framed under a law, to implement the law have no scope of violating the law itself.

 

Also, Citizenship Act, 1955, as amended in 2019, never promises Citizenship to illegal immigrants of any religion from any country. RATHER, IT SPELLED OUT A BLANKET WAIVER ON ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION OF THE PEOPLE OF HINDU, SIKH, BUDDHIST, JAIN, CHRISTIAN AND PARSI COMMUNITIES COMING FROM AFGHANISTAN, PAKISTAN AND BANGLADESH TO INDIA BEFORE DECEMBER 31, 2014. Thus rules, under citizenship amendment act 2019, cannot be made to grant Citizenship to illegal immigrants.
