YSR Congress party appears to have given up its diplomatic stance in the controversial Citizenship Amendment Act, National Register of Citizens and National Population Register and decided to fight it out with the Bharatiya Janata Party.
Apparently realising that the mood of the nation is strongly against the CAA and NRC, which are considered to be anti-Muslim, the YSRC leaders, in the all-party meeting held in New Delhi on Thursday, told the BJP leaders that their party would strongly oppose the acts.
YSRCP leader and MP Mithun Reddy said that his party made it clear in the all-party meeting here on Thursday that it was against National Register of Citizens (NRC) and the National Population Register (NPR).
He said that the YSRCP will stand in support of the Minorities and sought a debate on the issue in Parliament as the information sought in NPR was different than what was asked earlier.
Mithun told reporters that there was a sense of unease among the Minorities in the country after the Citizens Amendment Act was introduced in Parliament.
“We will certainly oppose NRC and NPR if they were introduced by the Central Cabinet. We sought a debate on the issue to clear the insecure feeling among the Minorities,” he said.
He said CAA Bill was introduced as an issue related to three other countries and added that way in which it was introduced and the way it is going to be implemented is different.
“Chief Minister YS Jagan Mohan Reddy has asked us to oppose anything that is against the wishes of the Minorities,” he said.
YSR Congress Parliamentary Party leader Vijayasai Reddy was also present at the meeting. At the all-party meeting, they requested the government to release the pending funds for the state.
