Andhra CM Jagan Mohan Reddy Says He Won’t Support NRC in the State

The YSRCP has not clarified whether it will withdraw support for the CAA, which it had supported in Parliament.

Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Jagan Mohan Reddy on Monday, 23 December, said his state will not support the Centre's National Register of Citizens (NRC).

"The YSRCP government will not support the NRC at any cost," Jagan assured a crowd he was addressing in Kadapa district, amid cheers.

Last week, Deputy Chief Minister Amzath Basha told reporters that the YSRCP would not support any move that would be detrimental to the interests of the Muslim community in Andhra Pradesh.
