TBT to when lawyer Abhinav Chandrachud tore apart India's changes in the CAA 

If You implement his ideas then all countries refugees come to India. But there are no single Muslim country who ready to take these refugees to their country. I am surprised that Gaza people are living in horrible environment without food. But Egypt refused to take Gaza people to their countries.

The so called 'disturbances' did not begin in 1947. The Great Calcutta killings and the Noakhali killings had already occured and it goes back centuries.

This guy is the son of Chief Justice DY Chandrachud. He got similar articulation style as of his father.

Is Wafq board and Minority council in secular country is constitutional? 🤣🤣🤣

He is trying to say that we have to provide citizenship to Muslims of Pakistan, Afghanistan and Bangladesh. If Muslims are not safe in Muslim countries. Then please raise ur voice on UN and other international formus about safety of Muslims in Muslim countries.

Ambedkar once said partition could only happen by the partition of population but gandhi had anshan

Is Muslim personal law board, shariya law, Polygamy, Child marriage for teenage girl and no proper alimony for divorced wife and kid is very secular and constitutional?

If partition was on the basis of religion, all the subsiquent policies regarding partion should be on the basis of religion. Secondly, if we are talking about minorities in Pakistan, and should not associate religion with it, then why is minority status associated with religion in India.

The first wave of hindus and sikhs coming from west pakistan were "displaced" because they were living in west pakistan and modern day islamabad. The muslims who came back from west pakistan in the second wave were evacuee's because they chose to leave india(a new democracy) and move to a muslim majority west pakistan and then return back to india because it was not to there liking. Its a shame he cant tell the difference between these 2 groups of people and why constitutionally required 2 separate terms, because 1 group didnt have a choice while the other one did. Also the displaced properties of Hindus in west pakistan was given to muslims arriving and the displaced properties of muslims in india were handed out to WAQF board, along with other superior rights which exists to this date. The same WAQF board which claimed a 2000year old Hindu temple to be muslim land when islam itself is 1300 years old. This man clearly forgot the partition was on the basis of religion... so if religion was the core reason of the problem, then why cant religion be part of the solution?

CAA is not about secularism/unsecularism/democracy/dectatorship etc. It is about an unfinished business of partition which was done on the basis of religion. Pakistan was for muslims and for the muslims who voted to form Pakistan. Overnight, non-muslims families who could not leave Pakistan due to confusion or lack of means, found themselves in an hostile land and were punished for their religious identity. So, CAA is only for those INDIANS who could not come to India during partion and whose religion did not match with the religion of the land. That explains why other contries/religion etc have not been included.

Muslims voted for a partition, so now whether like it or not, they have to live with it in their countries. They can not just break our country in the name of religion and then come back in the name of secularism.

He really needs to brush up his logical reasoning. As Harish Salve says and rightly says (paraphrasing) " A state can extend it''s ambit of humanitarian actions to any community and this in no way implies a discrimination against others." If I give alms to poor in my locality, its a fallacy to call me discriminatory against poor from streets in Baghdad. By this logic, any generosity and charity until and unless covers everyone on this planet runs the risk of being labelled unconstitutional. HIs confidence in his reasoning and that too on a public forum is a concern. If these guys are top lawyers and future judges, God bless us!

What Nonsense.... He is looking at partition migrations through the lens of Constitution and laws. Being invaded for so long was wrong. Then the whole idea of splitting a land at the hands of invaders on the basis of religion was flawed. All the Communal violence that happened bcoz of partition was unconstitutional and flawed and a dark chapter in our history. So how can he expect complete constitutional fairness when it came to migrations.... Im a Sikh. We migrated from Rawalpindi to Jammu, and now working in Bangalore. Our Properties in Rawalpindi were immediately given to Muslims and were considered Enemy Properties. At least India gave it a better term called 'Evacuee Property'... Secondly, Muslims partitioned India, and then They happily migrated to Pakistan, and then some of them realized in 1948 that India was better and decided to go back?? What Nonsense. Then why was Pakistan formed. Why did an overwhelming majority of them support this partition movement?? Ideally none should have been accepted back after the chaos they supported... CAA is for those non-Muslims who were stopped from entering India during partition owing to permit system and Nehru-Liaqat Pact. It simply fast tracts their citizenship process. Still if a Muslim wishes to come here, he/she can come under the old existing process which takes slightly longer. There are over 100k Afghani/Rohingya/North African Muslims living in Delhi NCR alone. Many have Indian Citizenship Muslims like Owaisi's family who supported Pakistan were not only given equal a chance to stay in India but also equal rights in India and a also chance to enter Indian politics... The fact that India gives equal rights to Muslims and Hindus despite being 80% Hindu is something to be appreciated. In Pak and Bangladesh, they are 2nd class citizens in terms of rights and priviliges

It's easy to say good things with love on stage. But in reality it is really opposite. In India many illegal people living in country with aadhar card and ration card.

He is supremely talented!👏🏻 Next CJI in the making!🤩

this video is like 4 years, why being circulated now?

Why is he not talking of Partition as unconstitutional 😂😂😂😂

He is deliberately confusing the issue with a clear agenda in mind. No law is 100% correct, that's why amendments are made over a period of time to make the law as realistic & practical as possible.

It's time to make democratic our Judiciary system not based on nepotism & family member system. 💙✊🏾

And I believe it is very stupid to compare rules with what has not been done. Parsis who are being marginalised in Afghanistan and pakistan given a fast tracked citizenship does not make the law unconstitutional. What is this rubbish comparison? So the law can only be perfected only post considerations of all the minorities around the world and welcoming everyone to come to the the most populous country? What kind of rubbish arguments are made here?

Trying to encompass every 'jeev' under the sun! But actually it's an old/partition time law, or a situation arose because of religion based partition that displaced 'minorities' in Pakistan NOT in India, will b given citizenship in India It took 70 years to do it, that's the saddest part😢

Adding "SECULAR, SOCIALIST" In 1976 Constitution Amendment is illegal😂😂😂😂by unconstitutional... By Indira Gandhi govt

There is a very huge debate on CAA NRC , but one thing's clear for sure is that it can't be praised in entirety and at the same cant be called draconian.

Supreme court judges appointment still very unconstitutional.

So he is okay with giving citizenship to others but only wants people (from the countries who have been a continuous threat to India, Europe, and other parts of the world) must also be given easy entrance. I wonder what he has to say in 2024 regarding Europe's policies on immigrants.

Such progressive mind Best things i love in his speech that he talked about atheist ⚛️ and agnostic peoples... which people in India doesn't bothered

I cant even count how many points he said were wrong 1-in last he mentioned that a child never been to bangladesh would consider india as his land that never happens literally that never happens indians living aboad will most definitely some time or other recognize and side with india, especially muslims this religious brotherhood they have can be seen everywhere and even BR.Ambedkar ji said that as well even today u cant see any muslim u will be ready to hear bad about uae not just that they feel proud in the things that uae does 2-the fault of child argument is bullshit is it the fault of child who is born in poverty or is it the fault of child who has to go through argubily discriminatory reservation (i believe it should be there) 3- and about outlining the date and country you cannot just cure or help everybody heck just trying to help people who came before 2014 and were literally killed there are such kind of protest imagine if they had added more what kind of more protest there would have been so u know just studying things on the paper and have never gone through bullshit in his life kinda person only can say that everybody is equal but in real life it isn't true people are treated different and this cannot be ruleled out such dumbfuck imaginary ideal arguments doesnt help anybody in real life

He didn't mention #Persecution. Why?

beating round the bush, the pain piont is about "not allowing muslims"

man the last few minutes he speaks the harsh facts as an atheist giving citizenship on the basis of religion is an absurd idea.

The Citizenship (Amendment) Act, 2019 (CAA) was passed by the Parliament of India on 11 December 2019. It amended the Citizenship Act, 1955 by providing an accelerated pathway to Indian citizenship for persecuted religious minorities from Afghanistan, Bangladesh and Pakistan who arrived in India by 2014. The eligible minorities were stated as Hindus, Sikhs, Buddhists, Jains, Parsis or Christians

If we allow everyone into India what is the need of partition

He is the son of the current CJI D Y Chandrachud.

Everyone is going on about how he's with an "agenda", but i honestly wanna know the ans to the examples he gave at the end, cause that is really puzzling to me as well. And why shouldn't the refugees who are atheists, agnostics etc. be included in CAA?

No one including any Chief ministers of country can appose law made by people of India(Parliament) CM has no right to oppose its own people. CAA is central government matter not state. So why supreme court not taking strict actions against such chief ministers who are opposing CAA. This is not unconstitutional???

And what about Internally displaced people.. Like me.. From kashmir.. Any law for me.. Very eager to know. 😅

😅 instead of quoting CAA is unconstitutional, just say it needs few corrections and has few ifs and buts. Tyre puncture hogaya, gaadi unfit to travel.... Puncture repair karsakthe na.. gaadi ko kyon destroy karna .

he is knowlegible and 1000 times better than me. I know that he understands that India has a limitted territory and limited resources and we have the larges slums areas. We can not host everyone who needs citizenship and our law was made with years of analysis and should be respected. I enjoyed his speech and learnt alot. Thanks.

Any layman would easily destroy his stupid arguments. The few minor valid points he spoke about require a minor correction, like adding jews in the list and Parsis from iran. Overall this law is LONG due and should be implemented immediately, along with NPR and NRC.

That's why we need reforms in the judiciary system of our country including The Appointment Process of Judges. These people have some sort of jaageer over this. And this very mindset of these people is making our country perform so bad in the delivery of justice. Wokeness must be ended from the judiciary.

He speaks with utmost confidence on the Citizenship Amendment Act because he will become the Chief Justice of Supreme Court and no one will question on the legitimacy of that act .

The partition happened because there was mistrust between Hindus snd Muslims. Leaders of parties with religious ideology couldn't agree to a single country. There was not one leader who said you British just go, leave this matter to us. Because truly no Indian then had the confidence to administer all these conflicters, so the British could have their way. Indians then and even today have not learned to be inclusive. The British managed to rule all over the sub continent because they had skills needed. We still have some going to do.

i don't mind about CAA but being Assamese it shouldn't be implemented in Assam because It contradict with assam accord 1985. I hope govt improvise the CAA and also look upon the interest of Assamese people.

This is like saying first Vande Bharat ran between two certain cities, but it is not right because every city has to be treated equal. You can either let people be helped in a systemic manner or be an obstacle all the while.

His first part of speech 👍🏻 Second part 👎🏼 His administrative sense is zero. Govt has taken right steps.

I have only one question who partioned India--- do he agrees that it's was Muslim League who divided nd the other religious group were not part of it. When u broke the country in three parts nd made an Islamic country why would u want to come back here by ur willingness u borke the country now stay there. Hindus nd other religious group were not left with any choice but to stay there. He didn't mentioned how partitation took place.

In India, officially there is nothing called as 'atheist' . One has to write religion based on his/her belief or birth.

Chandrachurd ????? Sound like future cji ,

that's why education is important

The property left behind by Muslims were not given to any one other than the Wafq Board Wafq Board is now the top 3rd land owner in India

Nation safety, nation integrity>>>>>>>>secularism

CAA is meant to accelerate the grant of citizenship to those who have entered India fleeing religious persecution in Pak,Afghanistan and Bangladesh prior to 1st January, 2014 whose numbers have been estimated at around 30,000. The number of atheists who have fled Pakistan due to religious persecution and have sought asylum in India is estimated at ZERO. Those who decry the CAA are promoting Islamofascism in the name of promoting secularism.

9:15 article 14 is only applicable for citizens of India not pakistani Hindu .....

You bro come to face J.SAI DEEPAK sir then you sure you get your propaganda 🤣

3rd generation... sad truth about our judiciary. .. imatured person will get direct entry in jidiciary.. 🤔

secular secular secular😂😂 Ucc? Why tax on hindu temple?

very easily ignored why the partition happened. would have been better if he read some unconstitutional history along with the his constitutional law

Proud on you and you should be in parliament but Indian politics will not allow you to be a member, I hope we will see members of parliament like you in next 50 years because it is very hard to crack this Indian politics।

Shame on Indian Subcontinent Muslims for repressing minorities.

The only thing I agree is about the Cut-off date of CAA. If it is not updated then CAA would be rendered useless within next one year

NRC should be implemented as soon as possible. Illegal immigrants or peoples should be thrown out of country as soon as possible.

It's a religious proposition not citizenship act as it says, what about non believers but still love India?

Sir is Mentioning Iran, is Iran a neighbour of India?

But how.... He said permit system is for those who ones leave India and then returning back.. How it effects immigration of Hindus from East Pakistan if permit system is applied?

At least someone had the courage to say the truth . People please come out Muslim hatred, open your mind.

wohoo.. say whatever you want but with an impeccable English and people will be in awe of your intelligence and sensibility ......

People will always write something as they can't digest the truth 😊

It is as caste system against everything that is not Hindu. BJP tries to eliminate Muslim.

which examination is required to clear to become a judge in High court or supreme court or cji. Has he topped the examination. What was his Rank. Does UPSC or other body Conduct such Exam

This is exactly how nepotism make countries fall😂

so according to him we need to allow who ever comes in

Pakistan was created for Muslims and India was created for Hindus primarily. And all the muslims of India voted for this. And also it was agreed by both Pakistan and India to take care of the minorities but that didnt happen in Pakistan. Thats why CAA was formed for the minorities in Pakistan, Afghanistan and Bangladesh. Ye sab nahi batayega ye. Its not abt religion. Its abt safeguarding hindus, sikhs, jains and buddhist belonging to India , Pakistan, Afghanistan and Bangladesh because this is the natural home for these religious people.

Article 14 or whatever say law is equal for all citizens of india, not for immigrants, or refugees. Granting citizenship is under ambit of government of india, and right to frame rule GOI decides to limit or extend rules . Once he or she acquire citizenship, article 14 all the equality related fundamental apply. Not before are during.

Lots of learning from this video! Thank you Brut for providing such informative and respectful content like this! :)

To people misinterpreting him (including the video title), he is not saying CAA is wrong simply because it mentions religion or dares to have religious grounds, he points out how the constitution itself had religious basis in its origin and seemingly 'secular' articles. This should be obvious to any Indian who knows what partition really was. His objection is more about the problematic definitions and edge cases than its philosophy.

There is officially no atheist in Pakistan, Afghanistan and Bangladesh. So, kindly don't worry, bro. All the best from a fellow Indian (of Christian Faith)

When knowledge nd laws got by blood ....... It reflects...... Salute his depth of knowledge

It will be amazing to see him arguing before CJI (his father) on the petition to be heard in Supreme Court on CAA! Very rarely it can happen in this world!!

“If Hindu Raj does become a fact, it will, no doubt be the greatest calamity for this country. No matter what the Hindus say, Hinduism is a menace to liberty, equality and fraternity. It is incompatible with democracy. Hindu Raj must be prevented at any cost.” - Dr. Ambedkar (Pakistan or the Partition of India (1940))

Everything was fine until he tried to compare Pakistan with England. He lost me there.

Looks like not even one interested in commenting on biased Brut lol

Govt be like: we are give new caa topic, son indians not gonna talk about electoral bond

If CAA is very much important to safeguard the rights of persecuted minorities, then what about the Jew population? What about the Sri Lankan Tamils ? So , what we can see here is one side eyeing for the political votebank of a certain group , while the other wants to avoid it . Though it has both pros and cons (according to different spectrums of the society), unfortunately the true nature/the essence hasn't been utilised.

Information is not fully correct, he did not tell about the Hindus coming from East Pakistan hugely being deprived , being tortured.

For all people who are thinking that he is talking about taking in all refugees of all countries it's not he is talking about the rights of the people who were once Indians have their property in India but r denied their rights And stop talking about credebelity of an lawyer when u urself don't even know one line of constitution

“While excessive blinking may be a sign of lying, it can also be a function of a host of other neurological disorders, eyesight strain, environmental stressors such as dry air, and pollutants such as pollen,” Hokemeyer said. Around this time of year, many people's allergies act up, leading to dry eyes and extra blinks.

This entitled nepokid is talking down on us today. Tomorrow if Collegium system stays he will become another judge

Itihaas gavah hai that minorities are safe with Hindus, but Hindus are not safe as minority. Once you understand this fact, everything will start making sense about CAA

How can you identify an Atheist?

Permit System reminds me the story of Tara Singh and Sakina from which Gadar 2 was made.

Mr. Abhinav RSS is the soul of Bharat "mind you" Communal poison is inappropriate word and paraphrase (interpretation of Sardar Patel statement ) is also out of context. If you respect UK and it's norms you should also respect BHARAT and her people's notion and perception. I am looking forward for your speech on Wakf Act.

Look mr. abhinav as an agnostic I wanted to tell you that I wanted to be secular but I observed that majority of non-muslim will put their nation first and not the religion..but very few Muslims will put nation first not the religion .. so its really hard to be secular all the time...

He's ignoring the part that India-Pak border was initially as porous as US-Canada. Pakistanis played for the Indian cricket team till mid 50s. So, the mentioned permits were not needed.

Next time he will argue the terrorists in court.He is talking nonsense.

This is what you expect from a educated person.

India has so much diversity. Only one community wanted and were successful in breaking the nation and creating a separate state. Then they return back as they thought its a bad idea! And this guy is putting them on an equal footing with Sikhs and Hindus who were displaced? Bhai tune waqalat jahan se bhi kari hai, dont tell people.

Please clarify secularism and is it secular when special consideration is given to some religious persons?

sike !! i heard his entire speech and he himself gave the answer to the problem, make it simply religious based , any person who is of minority in surrounding countries is relieved, any person who already has a place and acceptance in other countries shall not be relieved !

I don't know if this comment will ever reach you Dr. Abhinav Chandrachud but I sincerely thank you for talking about such sensitive topic while our country is going through such a religious fanaticism wave and its a shame that most of my beloved citizen are so opposed to the very thoughts of listing to something that doesn't align with there own views, especially just because of your upbringing and completely disregards the amount of work and hours you have put in to get your qualifications.

I have a question, why atheist and agnostics are not considered as minority?
