Dehradun, Jan. 21 -- Voices are now emerging from the non-BJP eco-system against the excessive turn protests have taken, ostensibly on the CAA issue. Die-hard Congressman Kapil Sibal (supported by Salman Khurshid) has pointed out how it would be unconstitutional for state governments to declare they would not implement the law. Basically, the protests needed to be largely symbolic - such as passing of resolutions and attempting to forge public opinion against the government move. This should correct the 'anything goes' attitude that seems to inspire those resisting the CAA. Possibly, as a citizen of Delhi, Sibal also empathises with the pain of commuters whose lives have been disrupted by the Shaheen Bagh takeover of government roads!
