BJP leader Ashish Shelar on Friday wrote to Maharashtra Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray, demanding him to implement the Citizenship (Amendment) Act in the state without any delay. In a letter written to Uddhav in Marathi, Shelar cited the statements by two Congress ministers against not implementing the act and requested the Chief Minister to implement it without any delay.

He said that people in Ulhasnagar and other parts of Maharashtra celebrated the passage of the Citizenship (Amendment) Bill.
