    Visuals from Jamia not pleasant: Taapsee Pannu on anti-CAA protests
  • Actor Taapsee Pannu has opened up about the ongoing countrywide protests against the newly-implemented Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) and the police brutality on the protesting students of Jamia Millia Islamia University in New Delhi.

    The 32-year-old said that although she isn't scared to raise her voice, she lacks enough knowledge to critically comment on the matter.

    Here's more on what she said.

  • "I haven't expressed my views on CAA because I haven't studied about it. But the visuals which I saw in Jamia, I didn't feel those were pleasant. I felt sad when I saw videos where students were talking about their plight," Tapsee told media at Most Stylish Awards 2019.

    "I feel something big has happened or something big is going to happen," she added.

  • Further, Taapsee added, "If I would have been well read about the circumstances, then I would have definitely expressed my views."

    "I'm responsible enough that I will talk about something only when I am fully aware about the issue. I don't feel scared to comment about anything but I feel that before commenting on something, I should have knowledge about it," she concluded.

    What is the Citizenship Amendment Act?
  • The amended Citizenship Act or the CAA makes it easier for six persecuted religious minorities from Bangladesh, Afghanistan, and Pakistan to get an Indian citizenship.

    The religious minorities listed in the Act are Hindus, Sikhs, Buddhists, Jains, Parsis, and Christians.

    However, the Opposition and critics say that the exclusion of Muslims from the Act reeks of bigotry on the part of the BJP-led government.
