Actually, I live in Aus too...Aus allows for dual citizenship but India doesn't. Perhaps you are speaking of the OCI card? My parents have that and it means you don't need a visa to go to India.

Got this from the Indian Embassy site

"The Constitution of India does not allow holding Indian citizenship and citizenship of a foreign country simultaneously"

When I applied for the OCI, i went to the Indian Embassy in Melbourne to submit forms and they told me that OCI and dual citizenship are same.. I have the right to do anything in india (like work, buy property, open a business etc) but the only one thing that i can't do is Vote..
The person said that OCI is dual citizenship because you are ultimately a citizen of two different countries at the same time.

I am a USA Citizen, Born in INDIA, and I hold an OCI card. With an OCI card I don't need VISAs to come to INDIA and I can stay there for as long as i want. I can do anything in INDIA except I can't cast a vote. I can only vote for US's elections.


OCI's doesn't mean Dual Citizenship. I don't think any country allows dual citizenship. I think Dual citizenship is only possible if you were to born in a flight. Then you would get a citizenship of the countries that flight took off and lands in.

OCI is possible if you are born in INDIA and then got you citizenship of USA. If you are born in USA but your parents or grandparents upto 4th generations are from INDIA then you can get POI (Person of Indian Origin) card.

POI card expires and needs to be reapplied. Where else, OCI card never ever expires.

I wish Zoya's birthplace is INDIA, and Asad finds all the information for OCI card and helps Zoya to get it.


PIO card should be reapplied for every 15 years... but OCI never expires as u said u will lose the right to vote n the ration cards n some government things but u can do business n buy property n stay in india without any visa restrictions... but if after earning a OCI card n that person stays in INdia for 5 complete years... without any break they could earn their citizenship...

Yes, so basically, you become a PR of India...and not a citizen. Like you can do the same here in Aus...you can be a PR but a citizen of another country and you can do everything except vote.

All citizens have a right to vote so essentially, it isn't dual citizenship.

so they are gonna bring it up last moment to create drama



Agree.. They hav not forgotten because recently it has been mentioned. I also think they wont show Zoya's marriage for this.. This will ruin present track. I am sure 4lions definitely hav planned something big..

May be we will see this on 100th episode..

Thats confusing because usa govt. does not allow dual citizenship as far as i know.


Well I have a dual citizenship of USA and Canada... My entire family does... We all are dual citizens of both countries... As far as I know, we lived in the USA for 3 and a half year and got our citizenship then we moved to Canada and we have been living here for 12 years and we have a citizenship f Canada... So as far as I know, you are allowed to have a dual citizenship with USA... Maybe it's only for Canada and USA but I'm 100% sure we obtain both citizenships
