1. बी.एस.पी. की माँग है कि केन्द्र सरकार CAA/NRC को लेकर खासकर मुसलमानों की सभी आशंकाओं को जल्दी दूर करे तथा उनको पूरे तौर से सन्तुष्ट भी करना चाहिये तो यह बेहतर होगा।

2. लेकिन इसके साथ ही मुस्लिम समाज के लोग सावधान भी रहें। कहीं इस मुद्दे की आड़ में उनका राजनैतिक शोषण तो नहीं हो रहा है और वे उसमें पिसने लगे हैं।
