'Passport never been proof of citizenship': Govt cites Passports Act 1967, Bombay HC ruling - The Economic Times
Government clarifies a passport has never been definitive proof of citizenship, citing the Passports Act and Bombay High Court rulings. This statement, reiterating a settled legal position, aims to address recent opposition criticism. While a passport is a crucial travel document, citizenship is determined by the Citizenship Act, 1955, based on various records, not solely by possessing a passport.
