No one can stop CAA implementation: Amit Shah at Kolkata rally

On Wednesday, Union Home Minister Amit Shah asserted that no one can stop the Central Government from implementing the Citizenship (Amendment) Act. Speaking at a large public rally, the BJP leader criticized the Mamata Banerjee-led West Bengal government, accusing it of engaging in “appeasement politics.” He urged the people to vote for the BJP government in the upcoming assembly polls.

During his speech, Shah emphasized that the Citizenship (Amendment) Act (CAA) is the “country’s law,” and the Central government, led by Narendra Modi, is determined to implement it at any cost.

“Citizenship (Amendment) Act is the country’s law, no one can stop it and we will implement it,” Amit Shah said.

The Citizenship (Amendment) Act, 2019, is designed aiming the process of granting citizenship to migrants who belong to Hindu, Sikh, Buddhist, Jain, Parsi, or Christian communities from Pakistan, Bangladesh, and Afghanistan, provided they entered India on or before December 31, 2014.

The Citizenship (Amendment) Act, 2019, was officially notified on December 12 and became effective on January 10, 2020.

Referring to political violence, corruption, and what he termed as “appeasement” in the state, the Union Minister stated that Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee has caused significant harm to West Bengal.

“Mamata Didi came to power by removing the communists with the slogans of Sonar Bangla and Maa Mati Manush, but there was no change in Bengal. Even today infiltration, appeasement, political violence, and corruption are happening in Bengal. Communists ruled Bengal for 27 years, and Mamata Banerjee’s government was formed in the third term. Both of them together ruined Bengal. Mamata Banerjee has not been able to stop infiltration in Bengal. Voter cards and Aadhar cards are being distributed openly to infiltrators in the state and Mamata Banerjee is sitting silent,” Shah alleged.

The Union Home Minister added that the people of the state will seek retribution for the ‘political murder’ of BJP leaders in the 2026 assembly polls.

Highlighting the accomplishments of the BJP government at the Centre, Shah mentioned that Mamata Banerjee has caused West Bengal to lag behind in terms of development.
