The Lok Sabha on 8th January 2019 passed the Citizenship Amendment Bill 2019 which allows immigrants from Bangladesh, Pakistan and Afghanistan to seek citizenship in India, as the condition of living in these countries for the minority’s communities is hostile. The Bill is yet to passed in Rajya Sabha. This Bill has been brought, as the ruling party is of the opinion that the partition of the country took place on the religion ground and as such, these communities need compassion on humanitarian grounds.

Whenever the elections, be it of the Lok Sabha or State Assembly or even of the civic bodies whatsoever, are round the corner, all the political parties which are in the fray remain busy preparing poll strategies to put up brave front against the opponents with a view to winning as much seats as possible to brighten the prospects of taking over the rein of government. It is possible, only if a political outfit has a good service record. A ruling party becomes popular among the electors if it fulfils at least some basic needs of the people or delivering those goods. But, the ruling BJP loses much of its credibility among some sections of voters in several Hindi heartland states such as Rajasthan, Chhattisgarh and Madhya Pradesh where it had strong footing for not doing what it had promised before elections.
