Ashoke Pandit disagrees with Anubhav Sinha on alleged post on CAB, latter says 'Mubarak'

The Citizenship Amendment Bill led to a huge uproar not just in the Parliament, where the government and parties of the Opposition faced off, but also on social media and among celebrities. Several stars from the film industry expressed their discontent at the introduction of the bill in the two houses of the Parliament and some came out in support of it. Even filmmakers Anubhav Sinha and Ashoke Pandit differed over their opinion related to the controversy. As a row erupted over the bill excluding Muslims from the list of  refugees who can apply for Indian citizenship, the former had a message for Indian Muslims that ‘this too shall pass’ after they showed ‘exemplary patience.’ The latter too replied to the Article 15 filmmaker and had a message for Indian Hindus that they too had shown 'exemplary patience’.

Pandit had also responded to Twinkle Khanna’s alleged tweet on the Citizenship Amendment Bill. The author had written, “Discrimination based on race, colour, caste, religion and other such social constructs in whatever form, goes aganst the fundamental moral integrity of the human condition.” Pandit replied, “Mam. Never saw such a tweet when 3.5. Lac #KashmiriHindus suffered the worst genocide in the basis of religion. All kinds of discriminations was practiced by the #Cong. for their vote bank. @narendramodigovt. has brought back the basic essence of our constitution.”
