Why Haven't the Non-BJP States Witnessed Violence: Amit Shah to Opposition

  • On Thursday, Union Home minister Amit Shah said that protests against CAA were politically driven.
     
  • He said, “I am making this allegation publicly that the protests were politically motivated, which explains the fact that no violence took place in non-BJP states." 
     
  • He further said, "It explains the intent behind the protests. Opposition parties, mainly Congress, should explain as to why protests were violent only in the BJP-ruled states.”
