Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on Wednesday slammed protesters who were against the Citizenship Amendment Act and National Register of Citizens and said the intentions of miscreants will never be fulfilled.
Addressing the Uttar Pradesh Assembly he said, "The intention of miscreants will never be fulfilled. After all, who is having trouble with this act? Why they are trying to discredit the country."
He said that protesting against the Citizenship Amendment Act was unnecessary.
"If people have misunderstood that they can arson and damage property then we know how to find a solution for that misunderstanding too. That is why protesting against the Citizenship Amendment Act is unnecessary," he said.
Launching a sharp attack on the Opposition the Chief Minister stated that they had divided people in the name of caste. "We speak of development and they speak of castes and divide people," he said.
"They are spreading rumours over CAA and NRC," he further said.
