332: CAB Passed in Rajya Sabha: Why is North-East Protesting?


Listen Later

The Citizenship Amendment Bill is raking up as much action outside the parliament as it is in the inside.

The Bill was tabled in the Rajya Sabha on 11 December and after 48 members debated over it for at least seven hours the bill was passed with 125 ayes.

And while that was happening in the capital, parts of North-East have been embroiled with intensified protests against the bill with arson and internet shutdown and curfews in place.

How bad is the situation currently in the North-East over the passing of the bill and what happened in the parliament today? Tune in to The Big Story!
