Hello! I am back after a long break! In this episode, I talk about the Citizenship Amendment Act. I try not to make any decisions for you, but hope that I've given you some ideas on how to research this topic better for yourself and try to understand whether this Act is good for the country, or otherwise. Other great resources on this subject: Amit Varma and Srinath Raghavan in The Seen and the Unseen, where they give you a detailed history of all the rules around citizenship. https://seenunseen.in/episodes/2019/12/22/episode-152-the-citizenship-battles/ Puliyabaazi is a Hindi podcast.
