Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal said, 'What is this CAA? The BJP government at the Center says that if the minorities of three countries Bangladesh, Pakistan, and Afghanistan want to take Indian citizenship, then they will also be given citizenship. This means that a large number of people from minorities will be brought to our country. They will be given jobs and houses will be built for them. BJP cannot give jobs to our children but they want to give jobs to the children coming from Pakistan. Many of our people are homeless but BJP wants to settle the people coming from Pakistan here.

Kejriwal said that under no circumstances will we allow people from other countries to take the employment of our children. We will strongly oppose this. If they do not take it back, then express your anger by voting against the BJP in this election. There is no employment for your children and you want to invite Pakistanis and provide employment, this is beyond my understanding. India is moving contrary to the rest of the world. All over the world, poor people from other countries are being stopped from coming, we are opening our doors to them. Bring back those businessmen who left India, so that new factories can open and their children can get employment.
