Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan slammed the Congress for being mute in its opposition to the “patently anti-Muslim” Citizenship (Amendment) Act (CAA).
Addressing a press conference, Mr. Vijayan said Rahul Gandhi, who is seeking re-election from the Wayanad Lok Sabha constituency in Kerala, has not uttered a word about the Central government’s Lok Sabha election eve push to impose the communally divisive law that seeks to relegate Muslims to a subaltern status by setting religion as a criterion for citizenship.
Mr. Vijayan said Congress national president Mallikarjun Kharge restricted himself to a cursory remark on social media against the Centre’s framing of rules to implement the law.
