Bollywood celebrities are finally speaking up about the Citizenship Amendment Act

Bollywood celebrities are finally speaking up about the Citizenship Amendment Act

As the protests against the CAA continue, it's becoming harder to stay silent.
19 Dec, 2019

The recent passing of the Citizenship Amendment Act has led to many protests in India, with quite a few people speaking up about the matter and condemning the act.

Recently, one of the protests by students of Jamia Millia Islamia University took a dark turn when the police used violence and excessive force against the protesters.

At the time, only a handful of Bollywood celebs - and John Cusack - spoke up about the matter, calling out the police brutality. Actor Sushant Singh was one of the few to partake in the protests himself.

But slowly, as the protests continue, it's becoming harder and harder to stay silent. It seems like a few have found their voice:

They stood in solidarity with the students

Some couldn't help but share their dismay

While others rightfully questioned what's to come

These guys made a call for action

Gentle reminder that silence in the face of injustice is complicity with the oppressor

Beating the future of a nation is not a wise thing to do.

Silence and inaction in the face of oppression and injustice is tentamount to complicity. Injustice anywhere is threat to justice everywhere. Stand up and be counted!

Every patriotic Indian should loudly condemn CAA.This is not a time to remain a silent spectator. No govt has a right to change the fundamental secular spirit of Indian constitution . And that is exactly what our current BJP govt is trying to do
