Citizenship law, NRC dangerously divisive says draft resolution of European Parliament
New Delhi, Jan 29: The final draft resolution by six of the largest groups in the European Parliament has said that the new Indian citizenship law is discriminatory in nature and dangerously divisive.
A majority of the parliamentarians have filed resolutions in this regard and a crucial vote on these issues would take place this week after discussions. The parliamentarians say that the curbs in Kashmir and such issues would impact ties between India and the European Union.
The
joint
draft
would
be
debated
today.
The
draft
also
says
that
the
NRC
may
be
used
to
target
marginalised
groups.
It
could
cause
immense
human
suffering,
the
draft
also
says.
It
also
warned
against
the
increasing
nationalism
which
has
resulted
in
fuelling
religious
intolerance
and
discrimination
of
Muslims.
