Kerala’s Leader of the Opposition V.D. Satheesan on April 8 (Monday) refuted the charge that the Congress party’s election manifesto for the Lok Sabha elections was silent on the Citizenship (Amendment) Act (CAA).
Mr. Satheesan said the manifesto, released at the AICC headquarters in New Delhi on April 5, promises that all laws made in violation of Constitutional principles would be repealed. This naturally applies to the CAA, he said.
Mr. Satheesan was speaking after inaugurating a discussion organised by the Congress election committee on the election manifesto released in New Delhi on April 5.
