Dear Shri Ghosh,
Just came across your article :
- Where you write :
Ø In short, everyone is concerned
Ø If there is a Nobel for jokes, we have found India’s entry.
Ø As soon we conduct a simple cost benefit analysis of the CAA (and the ancillary NPA and NRC), it should be evident that no other explanation makes sense.
Ø A nation-wide CAA/NPA/NRC would thus cost Rs 66,424 crore ($9.5 billion) and involve just under 21 lakh officials.
Ø Add to it the money needed to build and maintain thousands of detention centres necessary to house the roughly eight crore stateless persons likely to be so identified (extrapolating the Assam NRC’s 19 lakh “non-Indians”).
Congratulations for this brilliant analysis
Before and after reading the text of the CAA ( - without referring to the original Act ), I sent following emails to our Central Cabinet Ministers :
Ø Census 2021 : an Unprecedented Opportunity [ 11 Apr 2019 ]
Ø Confused about CENSUS - NPR - NRC ? [ 24 Dec 2019 ]
Ø Unprecedented Opportunity Seized ! [ 18 Jan 2020 ]
I think all of this confusion and concern could , still be easily avoided, if the government concedes to redraft the AMENDMENT , as described in my following email :
