CITIZENSHIP
Part II (Articles 5-11): The Constitution provides for only single citizenship and there is no separate citizenship of states. Citizenship can be acquired (Citizenship Act, 1955) by birth, descent, registration, naturalization or when India acquires new territories. Citizenship can be lost by renunciation, termination or deprivation. Parliament can, by law, deprive any person of his citizenship if it is satisfied that citizenship was acquired by fraud, false representation, or concealment of material facts.
Dual Citizenship, 2005
Under the Citizenship Act 2003, those eligible to become citizen of India as on 26 January 1950, could apply for dual Indian citizenship. The government has extended dual citizenship to all those who were holding the Person of Indian Origin Card (PIOC) and who had migrated from India after the formation of the Indian Republic.
