NEW DELHI: A bunch of Shaheen Bagh protesters on Saturday said that they would be going to meet Union Home Minister Amit Shah at his residence on Sunday over the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) and NRC, while admitting at the same time that they have not sought an appointment with the minister.

The protestors here called a press conference and told the reporters that no delegation would visit the Home Minister, rather each and every demonstrator along with the people who have problem with the newly amended citizenship Act, would go and meet him at 2 pm tomorrow.
"Amit Shah has himself invited everyone on television to meet him, so we are going to meet him tomorrow. Shah himself said that whoever is facing problem due to CAA should meet him," said one of the protesters who did not wish to be named.
A woman protester said that all the women would also be going to meet the Home Minister tomorrow.
