Explanationव्याख्या
According to the source, the Citizenship Amendment measure referred to in the chapter came into force on 10 January 2020.
The source separately states that presidential assent to the Citizenship Amendment Act, 2019 was given on 12 December 2019.
These are therefore two different dates and should not be confused.
The sequence stated by the source is presidential assent on 12 December 2019 and commencement on 10 January 2020.
The chapter also links the amendment with specified religious minorities from Afghanistan, Bangladesh and Pakistan and with reduction of the residence requirement from 11 years to five years.
The correct answer is 10 January 2020.
स्रोत के अनुसार नागरिकता संशोधन से संबंधित उक्त प्रावधान 10 जनवरी 2020 को लागू हुआ। स्रोत अलग से बताता है कि नागरिकता संशोधन अधिनियम, 2019 को राष्ट्रपति की स्वीकृति 12 दिसंबर 2019 को मिली थी। इसलिए दोनों तिथियों को अलग रखना आवश्यक है। स्रोत का क्रम है—12 दिसंबर 2019: राष्ट्रपति की स्वीकृति; 10 जनवरी 2020: लागू। इसी संशोधन को अफगानिस्तान, बांग्लादेश और पाकिस्तान से आने वाले निर्दिष्ट धार्मिक अल्पसंख्यकों तथा निवास अवधि को 11 वर्ष से घटाकर 5 वर्ष करने से जोड़ा गया है।
