Novelist Chetan Bhagat, who has been known to be sympathetic towards the BJP-led ruling dispensation, made it clear on Thursday that on the Citizenship (Amendment) Act (CAA) of 2019 and the NRC, his views are not aligned with the Government and the ruling party.

He took to microblogging platform Twitter to express his dissent with the contentious law, hitting out against the government strongly in multiple posts.

Even as several parts of the country witnessed widespread protests against CAA, the novelist in a series of tweets questioned the rationale behind the law and explained why they are flawed.
