RSS Chief Mohan Bhagwat during his Vijayadashami speech had said that ‘CAA doesn't oppose any specific religious community.’ He said  “few people protested against this law and  misguided our Muslim brothers by their false propaganda that this law was brought for restricting the Muslim population. So, due to this, there were further protests.”

Taking a sharp jibe at this, Owaisi said: “we're not kids to be 'misguided'. BJP didn't mince words about what CAA+NRC were meant to do.”

“ If it's not about Muslims, just remove all references to religion from the law? Know this: we'll protest again & again till there are laws that require us to prove our Indianness,” he added.

“We'll protest against any law with religion as basis of citizenship,” he said.

“I also want to tell Congress, RJD and their clones: your silence during the agitation is not forgotten. While BJP leaders were calling people of Seemanchal 'ghuspethiye RJD-INC didn't open their mouths once,” he attacked RJD, Congress and other opposition parties.

Asserting that the Citizenship (Amendment) Act was not against any particular religious minority, Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh Sarsanghchalak Mohan Bhagwat hit out at "opportunists" who unleashed "organised violence" on the pretext of CAA opposition. He was referring to anti-CAA protests across the country, including in Shaheen Bagh here, and subsequent Delhi riots in February 2020.
