Javed Jaffery is not fazed by trolls and we have proof.

The actor recently tweeted an article which discussed how 600 lawmakers in the 751-member EU Parliament moved six resolutions against the CAA, claiming it marked a dangerous shift in India's citizenship regime.

Jaffery's post was met with both support and criticism, with one telling him to move to Europe. The comedian had an apt response ready and shots were fired.

Jaffrey said, "Last time I read the constitution, it spoke of democracy, equality and right to dissent. Wouldn’t know if you have made any changes privately though... kindly update."

Jaffrey is one of the growing celebrities that are vocal against the Citizen Amendment Act. Fellow stars like Hrithik Roshan, Alia Bhatt, Sonakshi Sinha and Parineeti Chopra have previously called out the CAA while many like Sonam Kapoor and Mahesh Bhatt stood in solidarity with the students of Jamia Millia Islamia University when their protest was violently stopped.

Many also supported students of Jawaharlal Nehru University when they were attacked by masked vandals, with Deepika Padukone showing up to their protest as an act of solidarity.

I think India roll back to the same era when in USA black and White race issue was on its peak. In such ugliest nature of atmosphere Democracy or human right are worthless. I hope Indian people came to their senses and crush any move to divide their country on such controversial lines.

JNU masked protest attack was about increased hostel fees not CAA. While celebs want muslims to be included in CAA, not just hindus and sikhs foriegn refugees, because they feel muslims too face oppression in these 3 countries.

Trolls should be ignored. Everyone has right to dissent. Also would have appreciated if Mr Jaffery had also acknowledged that EU or any other nation has no business discussing India's internal affairs.They should first try to solve their own problems and close all inhuman detention centers in EU.
