India Snubs EU Parliament Over Anti-CAA Resolution, Says Matter Is Internal: Sources

Описание: India on Sunday reacted strongly to six resolutions drafted by the European Parliament lawmakers on India’s Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) which would be tabled and debated next Wednesday and voted on the day after.

The formidable number of 625 of the 751 members of the EU Parliament has come out in a scathing denouncement of not only the CAA but also the issue of Kashmir in its draft resolutions (numbering from B9-0077/2020 to B9-0082/2020).

In response to the draft resolution ahead of a vote on a resolution against India's new citizenship law, the Indian government sources said the EU Parliament should not take actions that call into question the rights and authority of democratically elected legislatures.

The Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) is a matter entirely internal to India and the law was adopted through democratic means after a public debate in both houses of Parliament, they said.
