The implementation of the Citizenship Amendment Act CAA by the Union Government has been widely welcomed by the refugees living in Punjab. Such refugees living in Amritsar for years said that Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s government has given them a unique gift.

Dalvinder Singh, Shoorbir Singh, and Shiv Kumar are among many other refugees who were forced to seek refuge in India years ago after being displaced from Afghanistan and Pakistan. Then began the wait to get Indian citizenship, which has now been ended by the Narendra Modi government at the centre. There is no limit to the happiness of such people with this step of the government.

Certainly, such refugees will now get relief from not having to get their visa extended again and again and their status in the society will also increase.
