India is currently at the brink of a civil unrest where minorities such as Muslims, Christians and Sikhs are fighting against unjust Hindu extremists.
Thousands of people are protesting on the streets of major cities including Delhi, Assam, Aligarh, Hyderabad and Kolkata to voice their opinions on the CAB (Citizenship Amendment Bill). Students of Jamia Milia University and Aligarh Muslim University have been fighting the local police for days and thousands of them got injured in the process.
While Bollywood celebrities including Sonakshi Sinha, Rajkummar Rao and Parineeti Chopra have expressed their opinions about the matter, Bollywood’s superstar Shahrukh Khan has not taken a stand yet.
SRK also happens to be the almuni of Jamia University and people have questioned his silence ever since the situation got worse. Disappointed in this act of cowardice, actor and RJ Roshan Abbas took to his social media yesterday and lashed out at SRK.

Say something @iamsrk you are from Jamia too. Who has made you so quiet? #IStandWithJamiaMilliaStudents

Abbas’ tweet also questions the humanity of prominent Bollywood names such as Salman Khan and Amir Khan who still have not spoken up about the matter. Have they forgotten basic human values or have they already sided with today’s Pharaohs? People want an answer.
About the CAB
The Citizenship Amendment Bill seeks to grant Indian citizenship rights to minorities including Buddhists, Hindus, Jains, Parsis, Christians and Sikhs who migrated to India from neighboring countries of Pakistan, Afghanistan and Bangladesh. However, the recent amendment of 2019 has excluded Muslims from this right, which is a wicked act of discrimination and bigotry against the the religious community.
