MANUU students’ plea to K Chandrasekhar Rao on CAA
The letter claimed NPR was the first step towards NRC that has already created distress and anxiety within the common public.
Hyderabad: The students’ union of Maulana Azad National Urdu University (MAN-UU) on Wednesday penned a letter to Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao, asking him to get a resolution passed in the state legislative assembly against the Citizenship Amend-ment Act (CAA), National Register of Citizens (NRC) and National Population Register (NPR). The student body underlined that CAA went against Articles 5, 10, 14 and 15 of the Constitution, “which define and protect the rights of citizenship of Indians and guarantee equality before law”.
The letter claimed NPR was the first step towards NRC that has already created distress and anxiety within the common public. “Kerala and Punjab have passed resolutions against CAA and notified that they would not carry out NPR. We request you to take a decision against CAA, NRC,” the letter stated.
