Supreme Court refuses to stay CAA yet again

NEW DELHI: SC on Wednesday refused to stay the controversial Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) yet again on a fresh plea that it was inconsistent with the Assam Accord, which was designed to prevent the local Assamese from becoming a demographic minority in their own states.

NEW DELHI: “No interim order,” the CJI said after hearing short arguments from advocate Abhinav Agrawal. The process hasn’t been very effective, petitions filed in the court said.
