What's the storyThe Supreme Court on Monday stressed that the determination of citizenship and foreigner status should be done through a "fair, lawful and reasonable" process while setting aside judgments of the Gauhati High Court, which had upheld declarations of 27 appellants as foreigners.
A bench of Justice Vikram Nath and Justice Sandeep Mehta allowed the appellants' petitions and sent the cases back to the concerned Foreigners Tribunals for fresh adjudication.
