Silchar, India (BBN)-BJP general secretary Ram Madhav on Monday said Hindus, Christians and Buddhists, who came to India from Bangladesh or erstwhile East Pakistan, will be granted Indian citizenship.
"No person who came from Bangladesh out of persecution or harassment will have to leave Assam or India. The NDA government at the Centre will soon bring necessary amendment to the present citizenship Act to grant citizenship to those persons," Madhav told reporters here, reports The Times of India.
