Singer
Adnan
Sami
welcomed
the
Citizenship
(Amendment)
Bill
and
said
that
it
is
for
the
protection
of
people
from
persecution
in
theocratic
states.
"The
CAB
Bill
is
for
religions
that
are
being
persecuted
in
'Theocratic
States'.
Muslims
are
NOT
persecuted
4
their
religion
in
Pakistan,
Afghanistan
or
Bangladesh
because
they
are
in
majority
over
there.
Muslims
CAN
still
apply
for
Indian
citizenship
like
before.
All
are
welcome
through
the
legal
'Front
Door'!" tweeted
Sami.
For
the
unversed,
the
Citizenship
(Amendment)
Bill,
2019,
was
passed
with
a
majority
of
311
votes
against
80
votes
in
Lok
Sabha
where
391
members
were
present
and
voted.
CAB
seeks
to
grant
Indian
citizenship
to
non-Muslim
refugees
who
came
from
Pakistan,
Bangladesh,
and
Afghanistan
on
or
before
December
31,
2014.
Adnan
also
slammed
the
Pakistan
Prime
Minister
Imran
Khan
for
condemning
the
bill
and
tweeted,
"No
country
has
the
right
to
comment
on
an
internal
matter
of
India.
For
example,
"It's
my
house
&
it's
my
choice
whom
I
allow
to
come
in.
Your
opinion
is
not
important,
nor
invited,
nor
welcome
&
definitely
not
your
business!
You
worry
about
your
own
a**!!"
Many
netizens
lauded
Adnan
Sami
over
his
tweet.
A
twitterati
wrote,
"Well
said.
Those
who
unconstitutional
should
also
know
that
constitution
of
India
is
for
citizens
of
India
and
not
for
any
other
countries."
Another
user
commented,
"I
always
liked
@AdnanSamiLive
since
the
"Lift
karaade"
song
...
feeling
never
changed
since
then..
👌."
