Total number of Persons of Indian origin is 18 Million and change. Assuming all of them are meddlers and all of them acquire dual citizenship. Will this many people can create "political meddling" say in voting in India? India has 1400 million people.

You can also limit them by limiting to their host countries.

Oh well... the looser rap has started. Now all the sources will be dug.
Its plain and simple, Republcans voted in person, Democrats in absentia.

America will be a bit more divided for few months to come. Then everyone will start watching the latest Kardesian. After sometime this old crow will forget what is america and Kalama Harris will take charge. Then we will know what is her real stance on issues.
By default, democrats have no stance on anything.

The Republicans have a Trump card in the SC which is where all lawsuits will eventually end up. Don't be surprised if in a month or 2 all these mail & absentee ballots will be ruled inadmissible. Of course that in turn will kick up another political storm. But right now with the Republicans controlling the Senate & the SC it's Advantage Trump.

Allowing dual citizen in India will be nothing short of disaster. we already have rogues creating scams and hiding in UK or some western country. Add dual citizen ship to that, then our so called neta's will not hesitate to sell the country to foreign interests. Dual citizenship works for other countries bcos they are strong enuf to enforce the rule even outside their borders.

We cant even figure out all those illegal settlers who come in and get aadhar/ration/license card pass off as citizens.

.... And the post mortem begins in earnest. If anyone out here follows this fiasco to the very end, I swear they'd become resident experts on the US elections for time to come. It's knowledge not for profit but For it's own sake.

For by the time we actually see a President & his VP sworn in we'd see the scraping of the barrel literally in terms of exploring every clause, amendment, act & precedent of the US Constitution in the SC & the Congress. Fasten your seat belts, ladies, gentlemen & the only one in between -> @BMD ; this is going to be a bumpy ride.

You are wrong on the first part.

Most of Persons of Indian Origins are NOT in middle east. You are confusing NRIs with Persons of Indian Origin. NRIs are citizens of India.

Here is a break down :

Qatar : 775
Saudi : 2781
UAE : 5269
Kuwait: 1587
Oman: 1790
Bahrain : 3366

Its not even 20K people. By contrast Portugal only hold 70K People of Indian origin.


I think the current Modi Government in India can easily do this. It won't even be a controversial issue.

As far as not sharing same interests with the Amm Indian goes, well, even if they don't (which I contest they do), they bring much value in terms of finance and lobbying for Indian interests abroad.

So you're saying NRIs, who are actual citizens, should be treated inferior to PIOs, many of whom gave up citizenship? Does that make sense?

No, I am saying that Persons of Indian Origins should be allowed to have citizenship of Indian, in addition to citizenship they hold.

The rights and responsibilities that go with such citizenship should commensurate with that of any other Indian citizen.

Like Indian citizens, they should be taxed if they are tax-resident in India for that year. There are laws for that.

Like Indian citizens, they should be allowed to vote in election, if they fulfill the requirement for having their name in the voter list of an electorate. EC says they can only vote at their ordinary place of residence, so if they are ordinarily resident in foreign, they most likely cann't. BUT if they live in India for extended period of time, they should gain that ability. Just like NRIs do when they return to India.

The point is equivalent treatment as a citizen, not special treatment. That means when they are outside India, they are treated as NRI (just like any other citizen). When they are back in India, they are treated as ordinary citizen of India (just like any other citizen, including former NRIs).

PIOs have most rights as a citizen does except the right to vote and some employment rights. NRIs also lose the right to vote after they are out of the country 6 months or more a year.

So what you are proposing is PIOs get the right to vote while NRIs should be denied the same.

And if NRIs also get the right to vote, then the 30-40 million immigrants in the ME will also get the right to vote, which means all those ME sheikhs, mullahs and kings will happily interfere in our elections.

And you also want PIOs to hold office in India with their citizenship status, which means the Chief Justice of India could very well be sitting in Washington DC or Riyadh.

Yeah, dude, let's allow that.

After you are done dreaming, we can get back to topic.

Nope, they can vote if they are in the country at the time of elections.

As usual, your diagnosis comes early in the day. Besides, since when are veterinarians qualified to speak for humans. No doubt , They can speak for the Irish . But Biden isn't one.
