Kerala Assembly had recently passed a resolution seeking withdrawal of the Citizenship Amendment Act 2019 (CAA) by the centre. However, many people including Kerala Governor Arif Mohammed Khan had termed it “constitutionally invalid”.
In fact, the Kerala government was only making a request to the Centre to repeal the Citizenship Act, in the resolution. Kerala High Court Advocate Harish Vasudevan speaks to India Legal about the legal aspects of such a resolution.
