THIRUVANANATHAPURAM: Novelist George Onakkoor expressed dissatisfaction on households visit in the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA). He expressed dissatisfaction when Union Minister Kiren Rijiju visited the novelist’s house as part of the programme. Onakkoor told Rijiju that including six religions in CAA after excluding one was not right.
