India Citizenship Law

Personnel from the Indian Rapid Action Force (RAF) are standing guard outside the gate of Jamia Millia Islamia University during a press conference by students and activists. The press conference is being held in opposition to the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) implemented by the Indian Government in New Delhi, India, on March 12, 2023. The CAA, which was enacted across the country on March 11, grants citizenship to non-Muslim refugees from neighboring countries of India. However, many critics argue that the law discriminates against Muslims. (Photo by Kabir Jhangiani/NurPhoto)
