Watch: Amit Shah challenges Rahul Gandhi on citizenship facts

Amid the nationwide protests over Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA), Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Friday accused the Opposition Congress of spreading rumours and disrupting peace by misleading people. Addressing a rally in Shimla to mark two years of the Jai Ram Thakur-led Bharatiya Janta Party (BJP) government in Himachal Pradesh, he said Prime Minister Narendra Modi had ensured that CAA would not strip minorities of their citizenship. “Congress and company are spreading rumours that it (CAA) will strip minority communities, Muslim brethren, of their citizenship,” Shah said. “I challenge Rahul Baba (Gandhi) to point out one (such) provision.”
