Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court addressed the appeal concerning the citizenship status of the appellants under Section 9(2) of the Citizenship Act, 1955. The Court held that the appellants, who had initially entered India as Pakistani nationals, could not claim Indian citizenship due to their failure to comply with the registration requirements and their subsequent underground status. The Court upheld the decision of the Rajasthan High Court, affirming that the appellants were not entitled to protection from deportation to Pakistan.
