Exploring the World Through Words

  In 2019, India introduced the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) which aims at providing refuge and citizenship to non-Muslim minorities from Pakistan, Bangladesh, and Afghanistan facing religious persecution. This law sparked significant debate and controversy, both within India and internationally. To understand the context and implications of the CAA, it is helpful to compare it with similar historical and contemporary efforts to address religious persecution lets take example of     the Jewish community. The Jewish Experience of Persecution The Jewish community has a long history of facing severe persecution the attack over 6 millions Jewish people during   world war two by nazi Germany is known to us very much but its not only just an attack but they are brutally tortured by them   which has influenced various laws and policies aimed to protect the Jews and providing them with a safe place to live.
