CAA rules ready, set to be notified before Lok Sabha elections

IndiaTimes Tuesday, 2 January 2024
An online system for application, processing & grant of citizenship under CAA is being explored by home ministry, a senior government functionary said. CAA was enacted in December 2019 and came into force on January 10, 2020. However, CAA rules are yet to be notified, which is why the Act hasn't been implemented or process started for grant of citizenship to nationals from Pakistan, Bangladesh and Afghanistan belonging to Hindu, Sikh, Jain, Christian, Buddhist & Parsi communities, who had migrated to India before December 31, 2014.
