This Act is about giving citizenship and not taking it away, said Union Minister Sanjeev Balyan and added that as compared to JNU and Jamia, there are more students in Meerut College who support the CAA.

Union Minister Sanjeev Balyan on Wednesday said that if people from Western Uttar Pradesh are given 10 per cent reservation in Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) and Jamia Millia Islamia, then nobody will be able to make anti-national slogans.
