Even though Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Home Minister Amit Shah are trying to convince people and allay fears regarding CAA, many leaders are creating confusion among the people to reap political dividends, he said.</p>.<p class="bodytext">“We request all political parties to sit down and talk over the issue,” he said.</p>.<p class="bodytext">The RSS’ Akhila Bharatiya Karyakari Mandal, which met in the city, also passed three resolutions, before cancelling the annual meeting of Akhila Bharatiya Pratinidhi Sabha (ABPS) over fears of Covid-19.
