No SC stay on CAA, process of NPR; govt has 4 weeks to respond

The Supreme Court on Wednesday refused to stay the Citizenship (Amendment) Act, declining to take note of protests and anti-CAA resolutions by the Kerala and Punjab assemblies, and brushed aside repeated pleas for deferment of processes relating to the National Population Register (NPR) as a corollary of CAA. The court granted the Centre four weeks to file a comprehensive response.
