Indian citizenship

A 94-year-old Andhra Pradesh woman gave up her US citizenship and sought Indian nationality, saying her final wish is to die as an Indian.

Individuals who came to India on or before December 31, 2014, from Afghanistan, Pakistan, Bangladesh who belong to Hindu, Sikh, Buddhist, Jain, Parsi, or Christian communities, are eligible to apply for citizenship under the CAA.

The development comes after Union Home Minister Amit Shah informed that before the Lok Sabha elections, the law will be implemented.
