Oct 19, 2023 at 7:58 | comment | added | user102008 | @mlc: Not true. According to section 4 of India's Citizenship Act, a child born outside India to at least one Indian citizen parent is an Indian citizen by descent, if registered at an Indian consulate within one year of birth, with a statement that the child does not possess a foreign passport. Whether the child has foreign citizenship or nationality is not relevant. If an Indian citizen by descent has dual citizenship, subsection (1A) provides that they will lose Indian citizenship if they do not renounce their other citizenships by 6 months after attaining full age. | |
