Answer:
The Citizenship Amendment Bill is a bill, originally proposed in the Lok Sabha on July 19, 2016, amending the Citizenship Act of 1955. If the Bill is passed in the Parliament, refugees from communities, namely, Hindu, Jain, Buddhist, Sikhs, Parsi or Christian coming from Afghanistan, Bangladesh, and Pakistan will be eligible for Indian citizenship. Importantly, it is only applicable to the people from these communities. The Bill relaxes the requirement of residence in India from 11 years to 6 years for these migrants. The move has been justified as protecting minority refugees from Pakistan, Bangladesh and Afghanistan.
