Abstract:
This paper analyses India's Citizenship Amendment Act 2019 (CAA) through legal and social perspective. It explores both sides of the debate discussing in detail about the arguments that have been established for and against the act. It also looks at religion based privileges- laws previously or currently implemented in India. An online survey was taken consisting of 150 participants falling in the age group of 15-34 years classified as Youth in India as per the Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation, Government of India (2017). The survey asked respondents questions regarding their age, gender whether they supported the act or not, their rationale behind their stance, views about protests and their main source of consuming news. The data collected has been analysed from diverse aspects such as age group, gender. Conclusions have then been drawn from the findings.
