In his statement, Vijay expressed his disapproval of enforcing the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) in an environment where all citizens of the country coexist with social harmony. In a rough translation of his Tamil statement, he conveyed, "It is not acceptable to implement any law like the Indian Citizenship Amendment Act 2019 (CAA) in an environment where all citizens of the country live with social harmony."




Furthermore, he called upon the Tamil Nadu government to take measures to prevent the enforcement of the law in the state. The statement added, "Leaders should ensure that this law does not get implemented in Tamil Nadu." The Leo star stepped into the political arena on February 2, officially revealing the name of his party as Tamilaga Vetri Kazham.






The CAA amends the Citizenship Act of 1955 to grant permit via Indian citizenship to migrants from Afghanistan, Bangladesh and Pakistan who belong to Hindu, Sikh, Jain, Parsi, Buddhist, and Christian communities and had entered India on or before December 31, 2014, due to religious persecution in their home countries.
