The Supreme Court on Tuesday afternoon refused to stay implementation of the Citizenship Amendment Act, or CAA. The court also gave the government three weeks - till April 8 - to respond to 237 petitions challenging the law that was notified last week, days before the Lok Sabha election.

The Supreme Court declined to halt the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) implementation amid 237 petitions challenging it. The government has three weeks to respond. Solicitor General Tushar Mehta sought time, while lawyers Kapil Sibal and Indira Jaising sought clarity on citizenship grants before April 9. CJI Chandrachud highlighted government infrastructure concerns. Next hearing scheduled for April 9. Despite challenges, Parliament cleared the CAA in 2019, with rules notified by the Indian government on March 12, prompting opposition questions as 2024 polls approach, slated from April 19.
