NPF reiterates stand against CAA

By Correspondent

DIMAPUR, Jan 18 - The Opposition Naga People�s Front (NPF) today voiced its strong opposition to the Citizenship (Amendment) Act (CAA), stating that the party stands for the future of the coming generation.

In a release, the press bureau of the NPF said the party has adopted a �political resolution� to oppose the CAA, and that it would stand by its resolution.

The party said that it was convinced that the stand adopted by it is �politically correct� as it can foresee the danger looming large for the future generation if the CAA is enforced. The NPF said the CAA is not only against the principle enshrined in its party constitution but also totally against the spirit of secularism as envisaged in the Constitution of India.

The party�s stand on the issue is clear as granting of citizenship of India cannot be on religious lines, the release said, adding that the CAA is nothing but purely �politics of divide�.

The party challenged the Naga people who supported the CAA to come out clean and declare their stand openly. It said it would not act from behind the scene and would go against the CAA.
