Anti-CAA protestors get creative with placards to express themselves

The Citizenship Amendment Act has sparked widespread protests across the country. Demonstrations, sloganeering and protests are being witnessed in different cities while the police has been trying hard to clamp down on the protests. The messages being sent across to the government are loud and clear, with witty placards doing most of the talking. Some placards will be remembered for times to come, having best captured the anti-CAA sentiment.

"Koi Lauta Do Hamare Bure Din", is a harsh take on Modi's famous election slogan of 'ache din'. Social media has reacted strongly to this one.

Union Home Minister Amit Shah said the Citizenship (Amendment) Act 2019, will give Indian nationality to refugees facing religious persecution in three neighbouring countries and not take away anyone's citizenship in India. But agitated protestors across the country were seen demonstrating against Amit Shah and PM Modi.

Many protestors came together to protest against the CAA with furious slogans saying, "India is not Israel" and that the integrity of the Indian constitution must be maintained.

Protestors urged the government to not divide the nation on religious grounds.

PM Narendra Modi's 'Mai Hun Chowkidar' slogan was used by anti-CAA protestors to make a jibe at the government. A placard read, 'who watches the watchmen'.

The youth reminded the government that India's biggest strength lay in its unity in diversity and no law should undermine that strength.  

Another placard said, 'I'll show you my documents if you show me your degree'.

Another catchy slogan, 'our country is all about its Jan', brought home the fact that India was always about its people, irrespective of caste or religion.

A woman's hand with the words 'No CAA NRC' on it will be remembered as a symbol of the anti-CAA protests.

Protestors were seen flashing placards with strong, secular messages that underlined India's democratic and secular nature, accommodating all religions.
