West Bengal set to pass anti-CAA resolution today
Kolkata/IBNS: West Bengal is set to become the fourth state to pass an anti-Citizenship (Amendment) Act (CAA) resolution in its state assembly on Monday.
The Opposition parties- Congress and Left- are likely to back the resolution in the assembly.
Earlier, the Trinamool Congress (TMC) government had rejected the Opposition's proposal to pass such a resolution in the assembly.
Kerala, Punjab and Rajasthan have already passed resolutions against the CAA in their respective state assemblies.
Though several non-Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) states have declared they will not implement CAA, Congress leader and advocate Kapil Sibal resonated the claims of the Centre which said a law made by Parliament is applicable to the entire country.
Embarrassing the Opposition, Sibal has doubted whether a state can actually stop implementing any law made by Parliament.
