Mobile app launched by India Government for those seeking citizenship under CAA
The CAA-2019 mobile app launched by the Union Home Ministry allows eligible people to apply for Indian citizenship under the Citizenship (Amendment) Act, 2019. The app can be downloaded from the Google Play Store or the website - indiancitizenshiponline.nic.in.
"The ‘CAA-2019’ Mobile App for making applications under the Citizenship (Amendment) Act, 2019 becomes operational," a news source quoted a spokesperson.
Prior to launching the app, the home ministry launched the portal for eligible people to apply for Indian citizenship under the CAA.
The rules for implementation of the contentious CAA were notified on Monday, paving the way for granting citizenship to undocumented non-Muslim migrants from Pakistan, Bangladesh and Afghanistan.
Those non-Muslim migrants who came to India till December 31 from the three countries will be granted Indian nationality by the Modi government. These include Hindus, Sikhs, Jains, Buddhists, Parsis and Christians.
