The concept of ‘Single Citizenship’ in India has been borrowed from:
-
A.
France
-
B.
USA
-
C.
UK
-
D.
Australia
Correct Answer:
C. UK
Explanation:
The Constitution of India adopts the concept of single citizenship from the British Constitution (UK/England). In a federal system, such as in the United States, citizens often hold dual citizenship—one for the federal government and another for their specific state. However, the framers of the Indian Constitution chose a single citizenship model to promote national integration and foster a sense of unity among citizens, regardless of their state of residence or birth. This ensures that all Indians enjoy the same rights and privileges across the entire country, preventing regionalism from undermining national integrity.
