The BJP’s 2024 manifesto, unveiled by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, excludes the National Register of Citizens (NRC), previously a key pledge in their 2019 manifesto. Instead, it emphasizes the implementation of the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA). The CAA, enacted in 2019, aims to grant citizenship to eligible individuals. The Home Ministry’s recent notification of CAA rules enables its enforcement, four years after its passage by Parliament. This shift in focus marks a significant change in the party’s approach to citizenship issues.
