CAA: Microsoft boss calls India's new citizenship law 'sad'
Microsoft boss Satya Nadella has spoken out about India's controversial new citizenship law. "I would love to see a Bangladeshi immigrant who comes to India and creates the next unicorn in India or becomes the next CEO of Infosys," he said. Soon afterwards Microsoft India issued a statement quoting Mr Nadella where he reiterates his hope for "An India where an immigrant can aspire to found a prosperous start-up". The CAA, which was implemented on 10 January, fast-tracks citizenship applications by non-Muslims from India's neighbouring Muslim-majority nations of Pakistan, Afghanistan and Bangladesh. Along with a proposed national register of citizens, critics say the CAA will discriminate against India's Muslim minority population.
