Kolkata: BJP leader Kailash Vijayvargiya on Saturday said that the Narendra Modi government is likely to start granting citizenship to refugees from Bangladesh and Pakistan from January 2021, adding that the Centre.
"We are hopeful that the process of granting citizenship to refugees under the CAA [Citizenship Amendment Act] will begin from January next year," news agency PTI quoted Vijayvargiya as saying.
"The Centre has passed the CAA with the honest intention of granting citizenship to persecuted refugees coming to our country from neighbouring nations," Vijayvargiya told reporters on the sidelines of the party's 'Aar Noy Anyay' (no more injustice) campaign in North 24 Parganas district.
He further said that the BJP are keen to grant citizenship to the large refugee population in West Bengal, news agency PTI reported.
