    Rahul Gandhi looks like he already gave up on everything.
  • This is a way of trying to prove a point that ppl would like to hear the other side to
  • @pauldavisbd
    Are we loosing the significant identity of our nation?
  • These are just diversions for people to not recognize the poor economic rate
  • Shashi tharoor again proving that he's the most sensible person in the parliament!!
  • The bill may be beneficial for the rest of india. But it's a different story here in Northeast. Yes, citizenship is good but not at the cost of the minorities. You know why ST & SC r given special rights? Because we r minorities. Our population is very low in our own state. Most of us live in huts and do farming for survival. Now what will happen if the bill becomes a law? Nothing will happen to mainland india but alot will happen to northeast. We r already suffering from identity crisis because of large number of Bangladeshi that settled here illegally after 1970. NRC was never implemented here. Narendra Modi fooled you and all of us. Now Bangladeshi immigrants no matter whatever bullshit religion they belong to will migrate to the northeast in large numbers & they will be given a land for their home & jobs by government. You know where those lands came from? The lands were reserved for the future of ST & SC by our king & the jobs will be taken away from us. In a few years, there won't be any minorities because all of them would starve to death because of no land, no job & discrimination from bangladeshis. The bill is a different story for Northeast. Please don't stay blind.
  • Owisi is like I will support jinnah in my heart but take Gandhi's name from my mouth to gain sympathy.

    How sad!During the time of UPA government,everyone were talking about day to day problems like development,subsidy,roads,water, agriculture,scandals.But after BJP government,India is talking only religion,ram mandir,babri masjid,Hindu,Muslim,etc.How peacefully people were living before.Now all are scared to live in their own mother land.No one is strictly protesting against low GDP , demonetisation, economic crisis,price hike in all sectors,gst, unemployment.What happened to India?Amit shah and Modi claimed India to be a superpower in 2020 but now it seems like India is going to be a Super Flop by 2020.These two men destroyed India like anything.Even AB Vajpayee,L K Advani were better than these two .

    The present government cannot do politics except separatism. When the economy gets worse, people are in hunger. The same story in Sri Lanka too.
