If he made a mild comment against Muslim's cattle theft, illegal beef industry or love-jihad, Muslims would have reacted much worse.

But that's neither here nor there. However Muslims might react to a theoretical comment on cattle theft has no bearing on what a government actually has done in response to an actual comment. That their reaction could have been worse does not make BJP's actions any better.
This entire anti-CAA protests are organized and funded and instigated by Opposition parties to create a Muslim vote bank, because they're upset that the ruling party consolidated the Hindu vote bank.
Or maybe the people who are afraid that they (or their friends/family) might lose their citizenship want to fight for it? Just seems like a simpler explanation.
And before you try explaining that CAA is harmless, no intelligent person falls for that. We know that it's the combination of NRC and CAA that makes it lethal.
No. They’re both a problem. It’s worse when the ruling party does it, because they have more power.

That seems like reasonable course of action.
