Granting citizenship to Hindu, Sikh, Christian, and Buddhist refugees was a promise made by the country’s leaders, which Modi ji fulfilled through the CAA
Opposition parties spread lies about the CAA, but Modi ji, by bringing the CAA, atoned for decades of governance mistakes
After independence, every minority victim of religious persecution in Pakistan, Afghanistan, and Bangladesh has the right to seek refuge in India
There is a significant difference between refugees and infiltrators; how can they be viewed as same?
Refugees are those who have come due to religious persecution, while infiltrators are those who have entered illegally for economic or other reasons
It is our duty to stop anyone who enters the country illegally, because India is a nation, not a Dharamshala
Just as much as Indians have a right to this country, Hindus from Pakistan and Bangladesh have an equal right here
Gujarat and Rajasthan are also border states, but the hub of infiltration is West Bengal, driven by vote-bank politics
Some political parties not see infiltrators as a threat to the country but rather a vote bank
Partition of the country on the basis of religion was a grave mistake by the then ruling party
Voter list purification (SIR) is not just the right but also the duty of the Election Commission; SIR will strengthen our democracy
The Modi government’s anti-infiltration 3D policy is Detect (identify), Delete (remove from the voter list), and Deport (send them back)
The significant decline in the tribal population in Jharkhand is due to infiltration
The Modi government’s High-Powered Demographic Mission will assess the impact of infiltrators’ illegal migration, their effects on religious and social life, patterns of population change, and the burden on border management
The disparity in population growth across all religions observed in the censuses from 1951 to 2011 is primarily due to infiltration
Union Home Minister and Minister of Cooperation, Shri Amit Shah, delivered the ‘Narendra Mohan Memorial Lecture’ on the topic ‘Infiltration, Demographic Change, and Democracy’ in New Delhi today and graced the Jagran Sahitya Srijan Award Ceremony as the chief guest. Many distinguished personalities were present on this occasion.
In his address, Union Home Minister and Minister of Cooperation Shri Amit Shah said that infiltration, demographic change, and democracy are extremely important issues. He emphasized that until every Indian, especially the youth of the country, understands these issues and becomes aware of the problems arising from them, we cannot ensure the security of our country, culture, languages, and independence. He added that these three issues are deeply interconnected.
Union Home Minister Shri Amit Shah said that censuses were conducted in India in 1951, 1971, 1991, and 2011, with a tradition of inquiring about religion from the very beginning. He noted that when this decision was made in 1951, his party had not even been formed. He said that if the country had not been partitioned, there might not have been a need to conduct a census based on religion. However, since the partition occurred on religious grounds, the leaders of the then-ruling party deemed it appropriate to include religion in the 1951 census. Shri Shah highlighted that in the 1951 census, the Hindu population was 84 percent, while the Muslim population was 9.8 percent. By 1971, the Hindu population decreased to 82 percent, and the Muslim population increased to 11 percent. In 1991, the Hindu population was 81 percent, and the Muslim population rose to 12.2 percent. By 2011, the Hindu population had further declined to 79 percent, while the Muslim population reached 14.2 percent. Thus, a significant decline in the Hindu population has been observed. (S-PIB)
