CAA 2019 aims to grant Indian citizenship to persecuted minorities (Hindus, Sikhs, Buddhists, Jains, Parsis, and Christians) who have entered India on or before December 31, 2014, from Pakistan, Afghanistan, and Bangladesh due to religious persecution. It is specifically targeted at providing citizenship to this particular group and does not apply to all undocumented immigrants or involve the revocation of citizenship for any group. option B is the best suitable answer.
