Subramanian Swamy moots citizenship to Musharraf: Amid a nationwide stir over the amended Citizenship Act, Bharatiya Janata Party Rajya Sabha MP Subramanian Swamy has made a statement which could trigger a fresh debate. The outspoken leader has said that former Pakistan President General Pervez Musharraf can be given Indian citizenship "on a fast track basis as he belongs to Delhi’s Daryaganj".
The Citizenship (Amendment) Act aims to provide Indian citizenship to non-Muslims from Afghanistan, Pakistan and Bangladesh. The Opposition has been against its implementation claiming that the law was an attempt by the BJP government towards making India a Hindu-only nation.
"We can give Musharraf fast track citizenship since he is from Daryaganj and suffering persecution. All self-acknowledged descendants of Hindus are qualified in a new CAA to come," Swamy said in his tweet.
Musharraf was sentenced to death by a special Pakistan court earlier this week on charges of high treason for imposing emergency in the country in 2007. The former dictator has been living in Dubai on a self-imposed exile.
