Maharashtra CM Uddhav Thackeray has affirmed a delegation of Muslim leaders and Congress MLAs that no community needs to live in fear.
While addressing to media at the Vidhan Sabha he said he has asked the community leaders not to fall prey to provocations and maintain peace.
As far as the NRC or CAA is concerned, the state government is strong enough to protect the rights of every community,” Thackeray was quoted as saying.
He later made a statement at the assembly that there was an atmosphere of fear and confusion in the entire country on the new law.
“Public representatives need to make efforts to clear the confusion among the masses and ensure their safety. We must try to keep our state’s reputation and tradition of being peaceful. I am making efforts to keep law and order situation under control for the last 2-3 days,” he said. “The new law is already challenged in the Supreme Court which would decide if it is as per the Constitution. Unless the judiciary decides, nothing would move further,” Thackeray added.
For the uninitiated, there are country-wide protests all over due to the passing of Citizenship Amendment Act by the government.
