Shamima Begum loses British citizenship

Is Sajid Javid right or wrong to remove Shamima Begum's citizenship?

Is Sajid Javid right or wrong to remove Shamima Begum's citizenship? Qasa is asking this after the Government have taken the decision to remove the British citizenship of the former schoolgirl from Bethnal Green in the "interest of safety and security of Britain and the people who live here鈥. The 19-year old, who was born and raised in East London, wants to return to the UK, four years after leaving to marry a fighter from terror group ISIS. After that we hear from Ruchir Sharma about a book he鈥檚 written called 鈥楧emocracy on the Road. The book is based on the writer鈥檚 experience of following election campaigns in India over 20 years and shows how the world鈥檚 largest democracy works. Then we speak to the 91热爆鈥檚 India and Pakistan correspondents to hear what people are saying about rising tensions between the two countries. It's after more than 40 people were killed in a suicide attack on a military convoy in Kashmir. And Qasa speaks to Tasnima Uddin from campaign group Nijjor Maush about their concerns that young British Bangladeshis are losing touch with their mother tongue.
