    The Citizenship (Amendment) Rules, 2024, align with the Citizenship (Amendment) Act of 2019. The Act specifies that migrants from Hindu, Sikh, Buddhist, Jain, Parsi, or Christian communities from Pakistan, Afghanistan, or Bangladesh who entered India on or before December 31, 2014, are eligible for fast-track citizenship. This policy aims to assist those fleeing religious persecution.
