CAA-NRC-NPR. Will the weird name guy, be in or out of NRC?

By - Abhudai Pal  CAA-NRC-NPR is the most inflammable topic in India. Some are in favor of this while some others are opposing it vehemently. In the entire wholesome, those who didn’t get a place in any category are the bunch of confused some. I met many confused ladies and gentlemen. One guy, in particular, was so awesome that he made me confused about his situation. What’s your opinion of CAA-NRC-NPR? I asked the guy curiously. I expected some intellectually loaded arguments with mention of the constitution of India, Article 14, Right to equality, Preamble, etc. But the guy replied: “Oh, what’s that?” At his 3 word answer, I was dumbstruck. From my observation, I can say that the man was in his mid-30s. I told him the entire thing about CAA-NRC-NPR . Then I asked him, “So what do you think now”? He asked me how will this affect him? I told him that when NRC will be implemented you have to submit some documents to the Government of India as proof of your citizenship. “Some documents

Dear Bapu, On 2 nd October 2019, as India celebrates your 150 th birth anniversary. I am not happy and I want to tell you about the conditions of India. Under the banner of cleanliness, a government has stolen your spectacles. They chose not to invest in technologies so, “no human has to enter into sewer lines” and manual scavenging comes to the end. Bapu come back and advise the government to give your spectacles back and focus on banning manual scavenging! Your idea of India was secular. The idea of a nation for which you fought, is murdered by people in the power. Indians are killed to protect the animal. Akhlaq, Tabrez, Junaid,  and many others were killed by Mob and their mistake was their name . You said, “In India, I am biased toward the Muslim, and in Pakistan, I am biased toward Hindus” to defend India’s secular fabric. Today's leaders are lacking the moral courage to repeat what you said. Bapu please come back and tell the importance of human v/s animal to my fellow I
