One such protester was the student of Jadavpur University, gold medalist Debasmita Chawdhary. In her act of protest, she tore a copy of the CAA while receiving her degree at the convocation ceremony at the university and addressed loudly to the audience – “Hum Kagaz Nahin Dikhayenge” (I will not show my papers).

Her slogan was influenced by a poem composed by lyricist and comedian Varun Grover which talks about not showing the papers to the authorities.
