Protests against new citizenship law continue in India

KOLKATA, INDIA - DECEMBER 27: Protesters gather during demonstrations against India's new citizenship law in Kolkata, India on December 27, 2019. Demonstrations continued in Kolkata on Wednesday (Dec.25) against a nationalist new "Citizenship Law" which grants citizenship to six religious groups from Pakistan, Afghanistan and Bangladesh but excludes Muslim immigrants. The new law allows citizenship to Hindus, Sikhs, Buddhists, Jains, Parsis and Christians from Afghanistan, Pakistan and Bangladesh, but not Muslims under the same circumstances. Protesters chanted anti-government slogans and carried banners with one reading: 'Presidency Against Fascism'. The controversial new legislation makes it easier for people from non-Muslim minorities in Afghanistan, Bangladesh and Pakistan who settled in India before 2015 to obtain Indian citizenship.
