Mamata Banerjee has the qualifications to be the next Prime Minister of the country. BJP is very angry with this comment. Adding to BJP’s discomfort, Nobel laureate economist Amartya Sen said that the role of minorities in the country will be reduced if the CAA is implemented. Rather, this initiative will encourage numeracy gurus. After these comments of Amartya Sen, senior BJP leader and former governor Tathagata Roy directly attacked him.
What exactly did the Nobel laureate economist say? Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee has always opposed the CAA. And Nobel laureate economist Amartya Sen said in an interview to the news agency, ‘As far as I understand, BJP’s main goal (behind the implementation of CAA) is to reduce the role of minorities. And make them irrelevant. It is being done directly and indirectly. Along with that, the role of the Hindu majority is increasing. At the same time, efforts are being made to claim the role of minorities
How did Tathagata attack Amartya? BJP leader Tathagata Roy could not accept all such comments of the Nobel laureate economist. He tweeted and attacked Amartya Sen directly. Tathagata Roy wrote on Twitter, ‘This person used to go to school in Dhaka. The man and his family were expelled from the then East Pakistan. Why? Because he is Hindu. However, he never spoke about the persecution. Why? Because he became a subscriber to the so-called secularism of the Gandhi-Nehru-Left. Which is another name for Tanchakat
Meanwhile, on December 11, 2019, the Parliament passed the Citizenship Amendment Act. Through this act, the minority Hindus from Bangladesh, Pakistan, Afghanistan will also be given Indian citizenship. However, this law has not yet been implemented. On the other hand, the Nobel laureate’s response to the whole matter, ‘It is very unfortunate in a country like India which is considered secular. Declaring someone as a minority is taking a very one-sided role. In fact it is being done in very bad faith.’
