Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modihas defended a contentious citizenship law his government passed as protesters continued to demonstrate against the new legislation that excludes Muslims.
Modi took the stage at a rally in New Delhi on Sunday to launch his Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP)’s campaign for the capital legislative assembly elections in February.
But he quickly turned to address the contentious law and the ensuing nationwide protests that have left at least 23 people dead.
