Over 1,000 academicians, scholars issue joint statement supporting citizenship law

1000多名院士、学者发表联合声明支持《公民法》

NEW DELHI: Amid the ongoing protests across the country, a group of about 1,100 academicians, intellectuals and research scholars has issued a joint statement in support of the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA).

新德里：全国各地发起持续不断的抗议活动之际，大约1100名院士、知识分子和研究学者发表了一份联合声明，支持《公民法修正案》(CAA)。

The group, in a statement, has said that the act fulfils the long-standing demand of providing refuge to persecuted religious minorities from Pakistan, Bangladesh and Afghanistan.

该团体在一份声明中表示，该法案满足了长期以来为来自巴基斯坦、孟加拉国和阿富汗的受迫害宗教少数派提供庇护的要求。

"Ever since the failure of the Liaquat-Nehru pact of 1950, various leaders and political parties like the Congress, CPM etc, cutting across the ideological spectrum, have demanded the grant of citizenship to religious minorities from Pakistan and Bangladesh who mostly belong to the Dalit castes," the group said.

他们表示：“自从1950年《利雅卡特-尼赫鲁协定》失败以来，各领袖和政党，如国大党、人民党等，跨越意识形态的界限，要求给予巴基斯坦和孟加拉国的宗教少数派公民身份，这些宗教少数派大多属于达利特种姓。”

The group congratulated Parliament and government for "standing up for forgotten minorities" and "upholding the civilizational ethos of India" and also for providing a haven to those fleeing religious persecution.

该团体祝贺印度议会和政府“为被遗忘的少数群体挺身而出”，“维护了印度的文明精神”，并为那些逃离宗教迫害的人提供了避难所。

We also note with satisfaction that the concerns of the Northeastern states have been heard and are being addressed appropriately. We believe that CAA is in perfect sync with the secular Constitution of India as it does not prevent any person of any religion from any country, seeking Indian citizenship. Nor does it change the criteria of citizenship in any way; merely providing a special expedited redress, under special circumstances, for minorities fleeing religious persecution from three specific countries i.e. Pakistan, Bangladesh and Afghanistan," they said.

“我们还注意到，东北各邦的关切已经得到倾听，并得到适当的解决。我们相信CAA与印度的世俗宪法是完全一致的，因为它不阻止来自任何国家任何宗教的任何人寻求印度公民身份。也没有以任何方式改变公民的标准; 只是在特殊情况下为逃离巴基斯坦、孟加拉国和阿富汗这三个特定国家受宗教迫害的民众提供一种特殊的救济。”

The group said that an atmosphere of fear and paranoia is being created in the country through deliberate obfuscation and fear-mongering leading to violence in several parts of the country. "We appeal to every section of society to exercise restraint and refuse to fall into the trap of propaganda, communalism and anarchism," the group further added.

该团体称，通过故意混淆视听和散播恐慌，多个地区发生暴力事件。该组织进一步补充说：我们呼吁社会各阶层保持克制。”

As those persecuted people who have been forced to come out of Pakistan particularly as to what they think about the bill. They are expressing their gratitude to PM Modi for ending their agony. It is sham intellectuals, writers and others, who have come out on streets to oppose.

那些受迫害的人被迫离开巴基斯坦，他们感谢莫迪总理结束了他们的痛苦。

The silent majority has finally awakened. We salute you sirs for taking up the cudgels and speaking in support of an act that only corrects a historical blunder. India has provided shelter to persecuted minorities since hundreds of years and will continue to do so with this act.

大多数人不再沉默，他们终于觉醒了。先生们，我们向你们致敬，你们挺身而出，发言支持一项能纠正历史错误的行动。印度几百年来一直为受迫害的少数民众提供庇护，并将继续这样做。

Congratulations to these 1000 intellectuals who have come out in support of CAA. In fact the government also had made it amply clear that it was not against any ethnic group or community, still the opposition parties incited the mobs to protest violently, resulting into huge loss to the public property and loss of lives. The taxpayers are already burdened and this mob violence has put further pressure.

支持这1000名知识分子。事实上，印度政府也已表明，不反对任何种族或社区，但反对党仍煽动暴民进行暴力抗议，造成巨大的人员财产损失。纳税人已经背上了沉重的负担，而暴力又进一步增加了民众的压力。
