Citizenship Amendment Act introduced to cover up Centre's failures: All India Youth Federation

Himayatnagar: The All-India Youth Federation (AIYF) accused the Central government that it has introduced the Citizenship (Amendment) Act (CAA), NRC and NPR to divert people's attention and 'cover up the failure of the Prime Minister Narendra Modi led Central government'.

Addressing the media, Federation president Aftab Alam Khan alleged that the Centre was favouring big investors and industrialists by providing them tax incentives and ignoring problems like unemployment and crisis-ridden farming.

Khan announced that the 16th national AIYF conference to be organised in Hyderabad from March 15 to 18 would discuss the problems facing farmers, labourers, workers and unemployed and finalise the future action programme for taking up struggles to find solutions. State AIYF president Syed Valiullah Quadri, general secretary Marupaka Anil Kumar were present.
