What is the limited form of dual citizenship given to overseas Indians called according to the source?
Correct Answerसही उत्तर
C. OCIC. ओसीआई
Explanationव्याख्या
According to the source, the limited form of dual citizenship provided to eligible overseas Indians is called Overseas Citizenship of India, abbreviated as OCI.
The source places this concept in the discussion following the recommendation of the L.
M.
Singhvi Committee and the government's in-principle approval in 2003.
It should be distinguished from NRI and PIO.
An NRI, according to the source, is an Indian citizen residing abroad, while PIO refers to a person who or whose ancestors were Indian citizens but who is presently a citizen of another country.
OCI is a separate overseas status.
For examination purposes, the correct abbreviation is OCI.
स्रोत के अनुसार पात्र प्रवासी भारतीयों को सीमित रूप में दी जाने वाली विदेशी नागरिकता जैसी स्थिति को ओवरसीज सिटिजनशिप ऑफ इंडिया अर्थात OCI कहा जाता है। स्रोत इसे एल. एम. सिंघवी समिति की सिफारिश और 2003 में सरकार की सैद्धांतिक स्वीकृति के बाद की व्यवस्था से जोड़ता है। इसे NRI और PIO से अलग समझना चाहिए। NRI भारतीय नागरिक होता है जो विदेश में रहता है, जबकि PIO ऐसा व्यक्ति हो सकता है जो वर्तमान में किसी अन्य देश का नागरिक है लेकिन स्वयं या उसके पूर्वज भारतीय नागरिक रहे हों। सही उत्तर—OCI।
