(2019) Conflict with Religion: A Complex Interplay

The paper concentrates mainly on the idea of citizens as compared to ‘illegal migrants’ and how a person suffers from the fear of losing their basic rights that comes with being a citizen just like that. The fear becomes more ultimate when there is a latent rumoured religious flavour attached with it. Through this discussion the author has tried to analyse the present condition of fear psychosis in India in the wake of the new amendment to the Citizenship Act (2019). The author also tried to analyse the protests that took birth as a result of dissatisfaction and anger from the people. | |
