NEW DELHI: Senior Congress leader AK Antony on Sunday lashed out at Prime Minister Narendra Modi over the latter's response about the Citizenship Amendment Act. According to Antony, Modi is lying to the entire nation and he must be ready to rectify his mistakes.

"Prime Minister Narendra Modi is not just challenging the opposition but also the entire nation," he said.

Earlier, Prime Minister Narendra Modi had accused his rivals of stoking fears among people and misleading Muslims over the amended citizenship law. He had also asserted that his government's schemes have never done any discrimination on the basis of religion.
