West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on March 31 reiterated her opposition to the Citizenship (Amendment) Act and described it as a “trap”, which will be followed by the National Register of Citizens (NRC).
“The CAA is a trap to turn legal citizens into foreigners. We would allow neither the CAA nor the NRC in West Bengal,” Ms. Banerjee said while addressing a gathering at Krishnanagar in Nadia district.
She also mocked the BJP’s target of 400-plus seats in the Lok Sabha election and said the saffron camp should first try to reach the 200 mark.
