Digvijaya has been speaking out against CAA, calling it a 'divide and rule' policy. Earlier in the day, he reacted to Prime Minister Narendra Modi's statement on Wednesday in which he asked people to introspect whether it was right on their part to indulge in violence while protesting against CAA.

Again, picking a headline on the Prime Minister's remark, Digvijaya Singh tweeted: "Main sahmat hun Modiji, lekin aap kyon introspect nahin karte aapke Gujrat ke karyakal mein aur Bharat ke PM ke rup mein aapne jo niryan liye unke bare mein? Kuch udaharan dun?" (I agree Modiji. But why don't you introspect on the decisions you took as chief minister of Gujarat and then as PM of India? Should I give you some examples?" CAA was not needed, feels the former CM.
