Good morning friends, LEGAL TIT-BITS BIRTH CERTIFICATE, PASSPORT OR AADHAAR CARD NOT CRITERIA THAT YOU’RE AN INDIAN CITIZEN IF YOU WERE BORN AFTER JULY 1, 1987: Citizenship laws say a person born in India after July 1, 1987 cannot claim ‘automatic citizenship’ unless at least one of the parents is an Indian. The Hon’ble Bombay High Court has refused grant relief to a man and 3 mothers charged with being illegal migrants even after they produced passports, Aadhaar cards and birth certificates to prove they were Indians. The Court remarked, “The birth certificate of one of the applicants will not (suffice) as under the law it is imperative for such applicant to establish that his parents were Indian nationals. There is no such proof adduced,” said Justice K.U. Chandiwal dismissing their pleas. IMPORTANT: Under Citizenship Laws, a person is an Indian by birth if born in India on or after January 26, 1950 but before July 1, 1987. If a person is born after July 1, 1987, he or she can claim citizenship if either parent was a citizen. For all born in India on or after December 3, 2004, they can claim citizenship by birth only if both parents are Indians, or if one parent is a citizen and the other is not an illegal immigrant. regallyyourslegal
