Agatha K. Sangma, the incumbent Lok Sabha MP and National People's Party candidate for Tura, on April 05 said she supported the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) in Parliament because Meghalaya was exempted from its provisions.
Despite facing criticism from opposition parties for her stance, Ms. Agatha emphasised that she would not have supported the Bill if it included Garo Hills.
She clarified that since the CAA does not apply in Meghalaya, there is no cause for concern.
