This is what happened to many who dare raise question against the virtuosity of the CAA. Many students who did dare the Act have been given dose of arrogance through police batons.

How could actor Sushant Singh dare join the anti-CAA campaign at Kranti Maidan? Get out of the popular Tv show ‘Savdhan’!
Even Priyanka Chopra had said something in favour of the protesting students, the axe is yet to fall on her. Lucky, she is in US.

Manoj Vajpayee, Anurag Kashyap, Richa Chaddha,Sabana Azmi, Farhan Akhtar and a host of others have outrightly denounced the CAA and they must be waiting for their share of barbs from the power-that-be.
