Hindu women can't wear bindi in Pakistan: Goa BJP prez


Panaji, Dec 21 (IANS): Christians cannot wear a scapular (a religious object) around their neck and Hindu women cannot wear a bindi on their forehead or flowers in their hair in Pakistan and the Citizenship Amendment Act would allow such religiously persecuted persons from minority communities to become Indian citizens, Rajya Sabha MP and Goa BJP President Vinay Tendulkar said on Friday.

Backing the implementation of the controversial CAA, Tendulkar said that Hindus and Christians living in Pakistan are even allotted colour coded ration cards to distinguish them from Muslims.

"Christians cannot wear a scapular around their neck and Hindu (women) cannot wear a bindi or wear flowers. There are many issues like this. Women of other religions cannot walk the streets alone in Pakistan. Such a dangerous situation exists in Pakistan (for minorities). Similar is the case with Afghanistan," Tendulkar told reporters here.

"In Pakistan, Hindus and Christians are given red coloured ration cards, while Muslims are given green coloured ration cards," Tendulkar said, adding that the CAA would empower persecuted minorities in Pakistan, Afghanistan and Bangladesh and allow them to avail Indian citizenship.

India is witnessing protests in several parts of the country over the implementation of the CAA, which was passed in Parliament earlier this month, and the possible introduction of National Register of Citizens in all the states, as announced by Union Home Minister Amit Shah.

    There is nothing wrong in giving citizenship to these people in fact it was an excellent gesture. Every people of every religion should be free to follow their religion. However, people in majority in the country where they are living and citizens of that country seeking citizenship in other country, it should be the discretion of the destination country to grant them citizenship. Simply one cannot go and seek refugee and ask for citizenship. In that scenario, law of the land will prevail. Granting citizenship by India for the minorities in the neighboring countries who are facing atrocities in the country where they are living should be welcomed wholeheartedly.

    There is nothing wrong with CAA. No one objects if citizenship is given to persecuted minorities from neighboring states. But the problem arises when you implement NRC across India and people who are left out seek benifits of CAA.
