Pravin Togadia, president of the Antar Rashtriya Hindu Parishad, on Wednesday welcomed the passage of the Citizenship Amendment Bill in Parliament.
He had been demanding such a legislation for years, he said.
With the passage of the bill, non-Muslim minorities who faced atrocities in Pakistan, Bangladesh and Afghanistan would get justice, he said.
He also said that as land and natural resources in the North-East are limited, Hindu refugees from Bangladesh who settled down in the region should be relocated to other states of India.
