Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday began a social media campaign in favour of his government’s decision to implement the Citizenship (Amendment) Act, amid widespread protests against the measure. He posted a video on Twitter of spiritual guru Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev in support of the law. In the video, Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev admits that he has not read the CAA, but advises citizens to do so. The message was posted with the hashtag ‘India Supports CAA’. It also asked the people to share content, graphics and videos from the Prime Minister’s NaMo app to show their support for the law.
