I have been warning about this for over a decade and I believe that the sad moment has arrived.
India's government has tabled a bill in parliament which offers amnesty to non-Muslim illegal immigrants from three neighbouring countries.
The controversial bill seeks to provide citizenship to religious minorities in Pakistan, Bangladesh and Afghanistan.
The government, led by the Hindu nationalist Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), says this will give sanctuary to people fleeing religious persecution.
Critics say the bill is part of a BJP agenda to marginalise Muslims.
The passage of the Citizenship Amendment Bill (CAB) will be a test for the ruling party, which commands a majority in the lower house but is short of numbers in the upper house of parliament. A bill needs to be ratified by both houses to become a law.
The bill has already prompted widespread protests in the north-east of the country which borders Bangladesh, as people there feel that they will be "overrun" by immigrants from across the border.
I will be requesting Maulana Yasin to censor posts which are sarcastic, stupid etc BECAUSE they are unhelpful, we are where we are. If you have pain in your heart please contribute. If you want to play around, you have an entire forum to post your non-sense and sarcastic comments. If you are a Pakistani Nationalist, GO TO HELL!
