Senior Congress leader Rashid Alvi kicked up a fresh row with his controversial remarks on Waqf Amendment Bill. Alvi said that the community has a right to protest against the ‘enforced’ legislation and they should show their resistance to it, by organising sit-in protests on the streets. His call for two-years blockade of the roads and streets came when he was questioned about All India Muslim Personal Law Board’s warning that it will create multiple Shaheen Bagh stirs (like CAA protests 2020) across the country. He further stated, “They should have said that they will protest like farmers and block the roads like the farmers did for two years.” The roads were blocked for several months, with protesters camping at the Shahean Bagh for months, thereby giving the daily commuters a harrowing time. The CAA claims that the new law will be detrimental and damaging to their existing rights and privileges in the country and will deprive them of their basic rights.
