Protest Against CAA And NRC In New Delhi

Swaraj India Chief Yogendra Yadav addresses the crowd during the protest against the government's Citizenship Amendment Bill (CAB), National Register of Citizens (NRC) and National Population Register (NPR) at Seelampur-Jaffrabad in New Delhi on January 20, 2020. The Citizenship Amendment Act has triggered nationwide protests as it paved way for six minority communities Hindus, Sikhs, Jain, Buddhists, Zoroastrians and Christians who came to India from Pakistan, Bangladesh or Afghanistan to escape religious persecution before December 31, 2014 to get Indian citizenship.
