1) The survey without asking papers which is being referred here is NPR & not NRC. The "buddhijivi" mixed up 2 different exercises here. The NPR exercise doesn't have to do anything with citizenship. It's meant to count RESIDENTS of India & NOT CITIZENS of India.

So, the question of marking somebody "doubtful" does not arise.
2) By saying that just because of a person's religion, a 'D' will be marked, this man is trying to create 'dar ka mahaul". I would love to know his argument supporting this ha-te ful thought.
3) He adds that

before Modi govt., there used to be no Birth Certificate & just birth used to be THE proof.
Bro! I was born in the yr when BJP was just 3 yr old officially & I've a birth certificate.😀
4) Onus of proving citizenship, as per the criterion defined in the Citizenship Act 1955

lies equally on every citizen (resident), irrespective of religion. If a mLim, who himself & his ancestors are from India, is marked doubtful citizen under NRC, then he is equivalent to a NON-mLim who is in the same condition. #CAA2019 provides immunity to NEITHER of them.

5) He claims that it's in the NPR, that one may be marked "D". This is a false claim. That fact that - NPR is NOT a citizenship exercise but mere a POPULATION exercise - itself clarifies it.
6) Last month a Mumbai court pronounced Voter ID as a valid doc to estab. c'ship.

7) He claims, "Criminal court ye wali adaalat nahi hongi. Alag hongi aur inhi ki banaai hui hongi".
Fact: Cr. Courts have been part of Indian Judicial System since the time when Modi wasn't even born. In fact, even his father wasn't born. (Ref. Indian High Court Act, 1861)

8) He claims that by accepting other religion, the 'D' may prevent detention. Again FALSE. It has no grounds. If he is referring the #CAA19, he is WRONG as no provision under it, interprets to such a claim.

Please ask if you need further clarification.

Mr. Harish Salve, a renowned lawyer, who has represented India in International Court of Justice, in case of Kulbhushan Yadav against Pakistan, writes on CAA2019.

(BTW, he charged only ₹1 for appearing in the ICJ)
