"In Interest Of Nation": Shiv Sena On Citizenship Bill Flip-Flop

Hours after the Shiv Sena in its mouthpiece 'Saamana' criticised the Citizenship (Amendment) Bill as an instrument that could lead to an "invisible partition" in India, the party led by Uddhav Thackeray in an about-turn supported the government in passing the bill in the Lok Sabha. "We supported the bill because of the interest of the nation. The CMP (common minimum programme) is applicable in Maharashtra only," Sena MP Arvind Sawant told NDTV.
