The voice of dissent is growing louder within Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in Madhya Pradesh against Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA), National Register of Citizenship (NRC) and Nation Population Register (NPR). As many as 700 party workers resigned en masse from the party in Jabalpur on Thursday.

Workers, as well as senior functionaries of the district BJP including the district head and former chancellors, left the party to register their disappointment against the CAA, the NRC and the NPR. All workers belonged to the minority wing of the BJP.
