355 Pakistani refugees granted citizenship

Jodhpur: In a significant move under the C i t i z e n s h i p Amendment Act (CAA), 355 Pakistani Hindu refugees were granted Indian citizenship during a ceremony organized by the Jodhpur district administration. The event was held at the Dr. SN Medical College Auditorium, where the recipients were handed their citizenship certificates.

The ceremony witnessed slogans of “Bharat Mata Ki Jai” and “Vande Mataram” echoing through the hall as the newly minted citizens expressed their joy and gratitude to the central government for easing their path to citizenship through the CAA.

Ramesh Chaudhary, a refugee from Pakistan’s Tharparkar district, shared his journey, stating that his application under the CAA was processed within three months. Another recipient, Bhagchand, reminisced about migrating to India as a child with his family.

“Our father used to tell us about the hardships we faced in Pakistan, which compelled us to leave everything behind and come here. Today, it feels like our long journey has finally come full circle,” Bhagchand said, beaming with happiness as he celebrated with his family, all of whom are now Indian citizens.
