Minority Affairs Minister, Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi has said, no Indian citizen will be robbed off his or her citizenship with enactment of Citizenship Amendment Act.
Addressing Minorities Day programme in New Delhi today, he clarified that the Act solely aims at granting citizenship and in no way it will take away the citizenship.
The Minister cautioned that elements with vested interests are trying to unleash fear psychosis among the public by doing divisive politics on communal grounds.
He appealed to the public to defeat such elements by maintaining peace and harmony.
Mr. Naqvi said, NDA government has taken various steps for welfare and empowerment of the minorities. He said, more than eight lakh people belonging to minority communities have been provided employment during the last five years.
