Legendary Indian cricketer and President of Indian Cricket Board (BCCI) Sourav Ganguly’s daughter Sana has been continuously winning hearts on the social media.

Sana had been previously applauded for outsmarting her dad Ganguly on Internet with her wit, but this time she has won everyone for showing great maturity on the social media regarding the ongoing issues relating to the Citizenship Amendment Act.

There has been a lot of noise about Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) in the country and even the police took action on the students of Delhi's Jamia Milia Islamia and Aligarh Muslim University for protesting against the new act.

Well the sports personalities have kept their tongue tight regarding the matter, and even Virender Sehwag, who studied at Jamia, did not say a single word on the debate despite being pro-active Twitter user.

Meanwhile, Ganguly also remained mute but his the 18-year-old Sana raised her voice against the CAA, sharing a relevant quote from Khushwant Singh’s ‘The End of India’ (published in 2003) on Instagram to express her dissent against the same.

Sana’s Instagram story reads: The excerpt read, “Every fascist regime needs communities and groups it can demonize in order to thrive. It starts with one group or two. But it never ends there. A movement built on hate can only sustain itself by continually creating fear and strife.

Those of us today who feel secure because we are not Muslims or Christians are living in a fool’s paradise. The Sangh is already targeting the Leftist historians and “Westernized” youth. Tomorrow it will turn its hate on women who wear skirts, people who eat meat, drink liquor, watch foreign films, don’t go on annual pilgrimages to temples, use toothpaste instead of danth manjan, prefer allopathic doctors to vaids, kiss or shake hands in greeting instead of shouting ‘Jai Shri Ram’. No one is safe. We must realize this if we hope to keep India alive.”
