How India's citizenship law crosses the line
Across India, people are protesting the implementation of the Citizenship Amendment Act, (CAA) after the bill was passed in both the country's upper and lower houses of Parliament. The CAA grants fast-tracked citizenship to undocumented migrants from the "Hindu, Sikh, Buddhist, Jain, Parsi or Christian community from Afghanistan, Bangladesh or Pakistan, who entered into India on or before the 31st day of December, 2014."
