No Connection Between Detention Center And NRC, Misinformation Spread On This: Amit Shah

Home Minister Amit Shah on Tuesday spoke to news agency ANI where he talked about some of the burning issues like CAA, NRC, detention camps etc. This will be Home Minister's first interview after PM Modi's 97 minutes speech at Delhi's Ramlila Maidan where he launched scathing attack against the opposition parties for spreading misinformation regarding Citizenship Amendment Act. 

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday sought to assuage concerns of Muslims over the amended citizenship law and the NRC, saying both have nothing to do with Indian citizens and slammed his rivals for "inciting" people and trying to divide the country in their bid to target him. Putting up a strong defence of the contentious law, he said at a rally in the national capital that it is about giving rights to persecuted minorities from neighbouring countries and does not snatch anybody's rights.

Launching a scathing attack on opposition parties like the Congress, AAP, TMC and the Left over their protests against the law, he said India had an opportunity to expose Pakistan over its discrimination against minorities but it was lost due to their politics. Modi devoted a considerable part of his nearly 100-minute speech, which he started with the slogan of 'vividhta me ekta, Bharat ki visheshta' (Unity in diversity is India's speciality) , to allay concerns of Muslims and said they should look at his "track record" and not listen to "tape record" of his rivals.
