Citizenship Amendment Bill by Parampreet Singh is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The Citizenship (Amendment) Bill, 2016 seeks to amend the Citizenship Act, 1955, allowing illegal non-Muslim migrants from Afghanistan, Bangladesh, and Pakistan to obtain citizenship after six years of residency. The Bill has faced criticism for being communally motivated and potentially violating the right to equality under Article 14 of the Constitution. Key concerns include its religious discrimination and implications for migration in regions like Assam.
