I do not understand the opposition for CAB. It is only related to non-citizens. Citizens have no reason to be scared or angry.
I think this acts violate Article 19 of Constitution and any law can not differentiate based on religion
Wrong, Article 19 talks about Freedom of speech and other freedoms. Nothing related to religion there
