The Citizenship Amendment Act, 2019 is not the last law on citizenship and if needed to accommodate others, like Tamils in Sri Lanka, the government may bring fresh legislation, according to a Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader, here on Tuesday.

On the prevailing disenchantment in Tamil Nadu, whose residents have close emotional bonds with Tamils in Sri Lanka, a senior BJP functionary said, "The Citizenship Amendment Bill was not comprehensive but contextual. If need be, the government may bring another Bill to give citizenship to religious minorities of other neighbouring nations, like Sri Lanka". However, the government had no such plan in the immediate future, the leader added.
