One view is that the BJP brought CAB to accommodate Hindu and other non-Muslim migrants who fled Bangladesh, Pakistan and Afghanistan due to religious persecution, as against Muslim migrants who infiltrated due to economic reasons. Proponents of this view claim pro-Muslim parties and organisations have launched a two-pronged attack to serve their constituency-on the one hand, criticise NRC in an attempt to prevent it from weeding out Muslim infiltrators, and on the other, build pressure on the Modi government to add Muslims to the list of refugees from Pakistan, Bangladesh and Afghanistan who will be eligible for Indian citizenship under CAB.
