Delhi and different corners of the country have been witnessing violent protests in recent times over the law.
The protests by Jamia Millia University students turned violent on Sunday evening when several vehicles were set on fire.
On Thursday, the protests touched various cities across the nation while police detained 100 people including historian Ramchandra Guha for protesting against the CAA in the national capital.
Meanwhile, urging all protesters to check their emotions while agitating, Shahi Imam of Delhi's Jama Masjid, Syed Ahmed Bukhari, has stated the Citizenship (Amendment) Act, 2019, has nothing to do with the Muslims in India.
