Answer 1

The correct option is D All of the above

The Indian Constitution recognises only single and uniform citizenship. The articles 5-11 of our constitution talks about citizenship. The Citizenship Act of 1955 lays down the criterion for the acquisition and loss of citizenship. It can be acquired through birth, descent, registration, naturalization, and incorporation of territory.
