ns It is not everyday that one sees Sourav Ganguly facing criticism on social media. However, the BCCI president has been getting the heat from many for his latest tweet. The former India skipper, on Wednesday, took to Twitter to post a tweet in response to his daughter Sana Ganguly???s startling remarks on the recently-passed Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA).
The CAA seeks to grant Indian citizenship to refugees from Hindu, Christian, Sikh, Buddhist and Parsi communities fleeing religious persecution from Pakistan, Afghanistan, and Bangladesh and who entered India on or before December 31, 2014. The Citizenship (Amendment) Bill was passed by Parliament a week ago and became an Act when President Ram Nath Kovind gave his assent to it on November 12.
Youth across the country have been standing in solidarity with Delhi???s Jamia Millia Islamia University students against the police crackdown on protesters. And 18-year-old Sana too decided to follow suit. She took to Instagram to express her thoughts. She shared an excerpt from Khushwant Singh???s ???The End of India??? and voiced her dissent.
Unsurprisingly, her post drew contrasting reactions. While many lauded her for her bold remark, many criticised her too for the same. And with his daughter hogging all the attention on social media, Sourav Ganguly took to Twitter to defend her.
The former India skipper urged everyone to keep his young daughter ???out of all the issues???. He also said that Sana is too young a girl to understand politics. However, Sourav Ganguly???s comments did not please many as a number of users slammed him for not backing his daughter.
Here are some of the reactions to Sourav Ganguly???s post:
When life gives you a Ganguly , be like SANA not like SAURAV
She is 18+ dada She is educated She can take her own decisions. She is well read. Please allow her the freedom you allowed to your players as a captain.. Will always be your biggest fan as a cricketer and captain.. Love you..
This is not politics damn it. This is India's big problem. Will U or your daughter permits anyone like Rohingas to stay in your home? Teach her the actual culture and heritage of INDIA. My whole family with me is big fan of you.Don't loose that position . Be a great Indian father
What happened to you. I am sorry but today I lost all hope from you. After watching you selfie yourself into Jay Shah???s life, I still tried to be okay. This here, Sourav. I will remember you from a more brave time but now you are cancelled for me. And it breaks my heart
