SC to hear CAA petition on Jan 22, asks govt to make people aware about law

As protests against the contentious Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) continued across the country for a third successive day on Wednesday, the Supreme Court said it will hear petitions that argue the law is anti-constitutional on January 22.
 
The Supreme Court also noted that there is confusion among citizens about the CAA, and asked the Centre to consider using audio-visual medium to make citizens aware about the law. The pleas have been filed by Congress leader Jairam Ramesh, the Communist Party of India (Marxist), the Indian Union Muslim League, and others.
