A law strongly opposed by many, especially by the Muslim community, for introducing a religion-based test for grant of citizenship to <strong>immigrants (a person who has come to a different country in order to live there permanently) <\/strong>from three chosen countries, the CAA is under legal challenge before the Supreme Court of India. Enacted in 2019, it was not implemented until now as the government did not notify the rules to <strong>operationalize (relating to a particular activity) <\/strong>its provisions. The timing of the rules being notified raises a legitimate doubt if it is an attempt to divert attention away from the electoral bonds controversy. The rules were <strong>unveiled (to make something secret known) <\/strong>at a time when the nation was questioning the delay in the submission of details about the purchasers of anonymous electoral bonds and the parties that redeemed them. The circumstances make one question the urgent need to implement a law that has not been acted upon for five years. The new rules also appear carefully crafted, designed as they are to introduce processes that will leave no scope for States to impede its implementation. It is possible that the rules were ready for a long time, and the CAA issue is being <strong>revived (to come or bring something back to life, health, existence, or use) <\/strong>for electoral gains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The essence of the CAA, in reality, may not affect the interests of minority citizens: after all, it is only a fast-tracking mechanism for <strong>minorities (any small group in society that is different from the rest because of their race, religion, or political beliefs, or a person who belongs to such a group) <\/strong>\u2014 Hindus, Sikhs, Buddhists, Jains, Parsis and Christians \u2014 from Afghanistan, Bangladesh and Pakistan to gain citizenship. Instead of the usual 11 years (out of the preceding 14 years), the waiting period for this class of immigrants will only be five years, provided they had arrived before December 31, 2014. Further, there is nothing in it that removes anyone\u2019s citizenship. The problem with the CAA is two-fold: first, in its <strong>discriminatory (treating a person or group differently from and usually worse than other people, because of their race, gender, sexuality, etc) <\/strong>norm that specifies some religious communities as eligible for citizenship. All those from these six religions in these three countries are presumed to have fled <strong>persecution (unfair or cruel treatment over a long period of time because of race, religion, or political beliefs)<\/strong>. Others who do not fall into this category, either due to their entering the country after the cut-off date, or because of their religion, will continue to be treated as illegal migrants. The second aspect is the unfortunate political <strong>propaganda (information, ideas, opinions, or images, often only giving one part of an argument, that are broadcast, published, or in some other way spread with the intention of influencing people&#8217;s opinions) <\/strong>that sought to link the CAA with the National Register of Citizens. This rhetoric accentuated the fears of Muslims that the CAA may lead to loss of citizenship without adequate documentary proof. More than its content, the CAA is causing harm through its use for the Narendra Modi regime\u2019s political messaging to the effect that all its policies will have an <strong>underpinning (support, strength, or the basic structure of something) <\/strong>of religion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unlock the power of words, one step further!<strong>\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.practicemock.com\/blog\/vocabulary\/the-hindu-editorial-vocabulary-download-free-pdf\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Download the Lists of Word-Meanings of Previous Months here<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Want to know the meanings of difficult words in the Hindu Editorial Vocabulary of March 14, 2024?
