New Delhi, Information and Broadcasting Minister Prakash Javadekar on Monday urged people to “spread facts not myth” in the backdrop of the recently initiated awareness campaign by the Prime Minister #IndiaSupportsCAA, on the social media.
“Spread Facts Not Myth: In the last 6 years, 2,830 Pakistani, 912 Afghani & 172 Bangladeshi citizens have been given Indian citizenship. Many of them are from majority community of these countries. #IndiaSupportsCAA,” the Minister wrote.
In order to garner people’s support on the Citizenship (Amendment) Act, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday launched a Twitter campaign.
He wrote on @narendramodi_in: “#IndiaSupportsCAA because CAA is about giving citizenship to persecuted refugees & not about taking anyone’s citizenship away. Check out this hashtag in Your Voice section of Volunteer module on NaMo App for content, graphics, videos & more. Share & show your support for CAA.”
