Opinion: A federal law that makes Muslim migrants less welcome doesn't echo what India's founding prime minister, Jawaharlal Nehru, told the nation when it was founded: 'All of us, to whatever religion we may belong, are equally the children of India...'

Civil servants in Calcutta, now called Kolkata, opposed a plan to replace the nylon kurta, that loose, long blouse worn by many Indian government workers, with kurtas made of cotton khadi cloth. Millions of government workers wearing home-spun khadi could help build India's village industries. It seemed such a right thing to do.

So government workers marched to the center of the city--and shucked off their kurtas. They chanted in their underwear,"Hell, no, khadi cloth has got to go!"

nprscottsimon NPR is only pro religion when it comes to Islam... and perfect timing that Trump just received a warm welcome there. Where is NPR on the real hateful religion, but I guess they feel “some people did somethings...”

nprscottsimon After near 7 decades of Minority appeasement politics practised by the 'Sickular' parties, its hightime the status quo was changed. It's hightime Hindu's were given a seat at the table.

nprscottsimon Muslims Mormons Catholics all freemasons who teamed up to try to take down the usa. Nobilityclause treason

nprscottsimon The law does discriminate. The “muslims day” is not necessary or helpful.

Opinion: NPR is anti-India and pro-Islam. 1. As of now, none knows how many Muslims or Hindus died in Delhi. So don't claim 'mostly' Muslims. 2. The CAA Bill gives citizenship to persecuted minorities from neighboring Islamic countries (Pakistan, Bangladesh, Afghanistan).

Total misinformation. Did not Canada give citizenship to Asia Bibi as she was persecuted in Pakistan which has Sharia & Blasphemy laws. Same way India will give preference in citzenship to non muslims persecuted in Pakistan. But Muslims can also come through usual route.

The CAA provides affirmative action in expediting immigration of persecuted non Muslim minorities from surrounding islamic nations that actively oppress them. Stop deliberately misrepresenting the intent of the law. Shame on NPR for disseminating this calculated lie.

Trump Duterte Putin Erdogan modi. all speak the same dictator talk. 'We are united. But the useless animal who don't comform to us. we kill.'

That is why India’s current prime minister and DJT got along so well. Both deranged and against their country’s historic principles.

Anti-India Islamist propaganda! Instead of questioning India, you should be blaming the Muslim majority neighbours where systematic cleansing, conversion and murder of Hindus, Christians and Buddhists are going on unchecked. Last time I checked, Helping the oppressed a good thing

It’s all Indian Muslims not just migrants. Get your facts straight

GHANDI IS ROLLING OVER IN HIS GRAVE

Fake news : this law is for minorities from only three Islamic countries for those who came before 2014 to become indian citizen. Muslims can still seek citizenship through proper channel which is for anyone from any religion including Hindus, sikh, christian etc.

And the executive orders being issued in the US would cause the Founders to roll over in their graves.

There’s a global selfishness happening right now. You can call it whatever you want, nationalism or what, but it is a dark attitude that is pushed from the powerful like Modi, Trump and others to power.

Why do white(Jewish) liberals think they get to tell Indians how to manage their affairs Are Muslim nations welcoming to outsiders? Why would the rest of the world need to be welcoming to them?
