On Saturday, Amit Shah, the Union home minister, declared that the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) would be promulgated and put into effect before to the next Lok Sabha election, referring to it as a “act of the country.” Shah emphasised that the act does not want to “take away anyone’s citizenship,” but rather to grant citizenship.
“The CAA is a national statute…It will receive notice before to the polls. There ought to be no room for doubt about that. Our nation’s minorities, particularly the Muslim minority, are being incited…There is nothing in the Act that allows the CAA to take away someone’s citizenship. Speaking at the ET Now-Global Business event in Delhi, Shah stated that the CAA is an act that grants citizenship to refugees who were oppressed in Bangladesh and Pakistan.
During the Lok Sabha elections, the BJP has made the promise to execute the CAA, which was passed by the Parliament on December 11, 2019, a major electoral agenda item.
Shah went on to accuse the outgoing Congress administration of “backtracking” on its pledge to enact the CAA nationwide.
“The Congress government made a promise with the CAA. Congress promised the refugees that they would be welcomed in India and would be granted Indian citizenship during the time when the country was divided and minorities were being persecuted in foreign countries. As reported by news outlet ANI, he stated, “Now they are backtracking.”
The administration led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi introduced the Citizenship Amendment Act, or CAA. The Act sought to grant Indian nationality to non-Muslim migrants who were subjected to persecution because of their “religious persecution or fear of religious persecution.” These migrants included Hindus, Sikhs, Jains, Buddhists, Parsis, and Christians. These migrants came from Bangladesh, Pakistan, and Afghanistan and entered India up until December 31, 2014. It did not, however, include Muslims or other groups that escaped from the same or nearby areas. Nationwide protests were sparked by this.
After the CAA was introduced in Parliament on December 4, 2019, demonstrations first broke out in Assam. Following the Act’s enactment on December 11, 2019, protests grew nationwide, with some regions experiencing violent scenes. The demonstrators referred to CAA as a “attack on India’s secularism” and “discriminatory.” Thousands of protestors were detained, and sources state that a number of individuals died as a result of police action or during the protests.

In Sitapahar, near the Ranga police station in the Sahibganj district, a fire broke out in the Saint Joseph hostel of Gandhi Jayanti Middle School. The incident happened early on Saturday, February 10. The students at the hostel managed to put out the fire after an hour or so, but by then over a hundred beds, bedding, books, children’s clothes, and other hostel property had been reduced to ashes. The fire caused a loss of lakhs of rupees. The students’ near-death experience was fortunate.
The information states that on Saturday morning at roughly 6:45 a.m., the boys of Saint Joseph Hostel were praying on the grounds of the Catholic Church, which is situated behind the hostel. There was panic when the kids noticed that smoke and flames were coming from the hostel’s upper floor large hall. As they all ran to the hostel, the students tried to save their belongings, but the flames were too strong. More than half of the kids’ belongings caught fire due to the equally heavy smoke.
Children worked together to use water to put out the fire. After being notified of the situation by the hostel manager, Ranga police station ASI Vijay Kumar Dwivedi and his team arrived at the location and assisted in putting out the fire. The fire department team was notified of the situation by the police. Firefighting vehicles arrived on the scene as soon as they received the information and extinguished the fire.
The incident happened at about 6:45 in the morning, according to the hostel administration. It’s unclear what started the fire. It’s being suggested that the kids were studying by lighting candles in the morning and that one of them may have gone outside to pray without extinguishing the candle. Could it be that the strong wind caused the fire from the candle?
In the hall where the fire started, more than 200 pupils from classes 5, 6, and 7 resided. The entire hostel is home to more than 350 students.The kids started a fire, but they quickly put it out by passing water-filled buckets to one another and setting up a channel system. Because the kids were outside when it happened, a serious accident was avoided.
Numerous items, including children’s bedding, books, clothes, snacks, and wiring, were reduced to ashes in this Sahibganj fire incident. The hostel’s manager reported that the fire in the largest hall had caused a loss of lakhs of rupees. Over a hundred beds have burned to the ground. Relocating the kids to the hostel will require some time. As a result, all of the children’s parents are being called and told to return home for a few days. The children studied right away after the incident and kept their stuff outside on the verandah.

Following Hemant Soren’s resignation as chief minister due to his alleged involvement in a land scam, Sudhir Chaudhary issued an apology for his remarks. When the news anchor made casteist remarks on January 31, he was met with backlash and a complaint.
Jharkhand’s tribal communities are outraged by the incident, and many have expressed dissatisfaction with both the Modi government and Sudhir Chaudhary. The Jharkhand police are looking into the situation more. Keep checking back for updates on this evolving narrative.
On January 31, the day Soren was taken into custody by the Enforcement Directorate, Chaudhary stated on his primetime show Black and White that Soren and his family were not “Adivasis” since they resided in “big bungalows”.
In addition, he compared Soren’s night in jail to that of the tribal people who live in forests, describing it as “going back by 20, 30, 40 years like an Adivasi to the jungle.”

The use of bulldozers to destroy homes that have been ruled illegal has caused outrage in Haldwani, which is a worrying development. This action appears to be directed towards Muslim households.
Strict warnings have been issued by the authorities, asking the public to stay indoors while the demolition is underway. According to reports, people discovered outside run the risk of being shot by police officers right away.
The streets of Haldwani are still tense as bulldozers thunder by, announcing that demolition work has begun. This action is a component of a larger plan to remove unauthorized encroachments from the city.
Chief Minister Dhami’s unwavering directive has emphasized a zero-tolerance policy towards illegal encroachments. The police are actively searching for and capturing anyone engaged in rioting or acts of resistance.
The law’s application has been controversial and has sparked debate due to worries about the government’s oppressive tactics and their indiscriminate targeting of Muslim households.Community leaders and activists are calling for a measured and compassionate approach to address the issue of illegal encroachments while protecting the rights and dignity of affected residents, as the situation continues to change quickly.
Hours after former prime minister Chaudhary Charan Singh, his grandfather, was awarded the Bharat Ratna, RLD leader Jayant Chaudhary announced on Friday that his party, the BJP, would field candidates in Uttar Pradesh for the 2024 Lok Sabha election. When asked to verify the alliance reports, Chaudhary responded that he “could not refuse the offer.” Jayant Chauhary applauded PM Modi’s leadership in the recent act of nominating his grandfather for Bharat Ratna Award.
With this decision, Chaudhary has taken a major step backwards since the RLD was previously in talks for an alliance with the Samajwadi Party (SP). However, it seems that his choice was affected by the recent Bharat Ratna announcement.
Although the RLD and BJP continue to discuss the specifics of their alliance, there are rumors that the RLD may run for two Lok Sabha seats and one Rajya Sabha seat in Uttar Pradesh. This ruling may have an effect on the electoral climate in Western Uttar Pradesh, where the RLD has been embraced by the Jat community.
The establishment of the I.N.D.I.A. Alliance by the SP and other regional parties has been hit by Chaudhary’s decision to join the NDA. Akhilesh Yadav, the leader of the SP, had earlier extended an offer to RLD for seven seats in the alliance; however, the Bharat Ratna development appears to have changed the dynamics.
RLD’s performance in the 2022 UP assembly elections (winning 9 seats) suggests its potential, despite the fact that the alliance with the SP produced disappointing results for both parties in the 2019 elections. The assembly polls saw the BJP secure a sizable majority, so the upcoming Lok Sabha elections in Uttar Pradesh are anticipated to be hotly contested. The RLD’s move to join the NDA adds another element to the mix, increasing the uncertainty of the electoral environment.
