“We have adopted a resolution urging the people to say yes to Census, no to NPR. CITU ensures that a ground level campaign against NPR, NRC and CAA will happen from the organisation to educate the people about the BJP’s double standards. It is workers’ non-cooperation movement,” CITU president K Hemalatha told reporters on the sidelines of the CITU’s 16th all India conference being held here.
The resolution said that the CAA is an assault by the BJP government on the secular principals of the Constitution.
“CAA was a communal Act in the Independent India. It is in consonance with the British government’s two nation theory on the basis of religion which Indian freedom struggle never accepted and secularism and equality become the firm foundation of India,” it said, adding that the NRC is not only against the Muslims, but also the poor who don’t have any documents including birth certificates.
In another resolution, it said that CITU would organise jail filling movement on March 6 protesting against the violence against women demanding strict action from the governments.
