Indian Origin Woman From UK Stranded at Kathmandu Airport After Being Barred From Boarding Relief Fl

Hi ,
I am sorry you feel that way.
I can assure this is not meant as being rude or anything. What i'm trying to establish is that Passport is a travel document. One of the documents used to assess your nationality. when your travel outside. But when youre inside India and without passport, that doesn't mean you're not Indian

Answering the part in bold, by the law, this is the definition - a person is Indian if born in India on or after January 26, 1950 but before July 1, 1987. If a person is born after July 1987 and before December 3,2004, then he or she can claim Indian citizenship if either parent is Indian citizen.
After December 3, 2004, a person can be Indian citizen only if both parents are Indians or one parent is a citizen and the other is not an illegal immigrant at the time of birth.

You -----------------all this development in your country is because of these people. All this strutting around and posture building because these people brought you the opportunities to be someone in the last 17 years.

Could you expend upon your pernicious assertion?

I do not see what benefit does Bobby Jindal brings to India.

When someone of India origin do something good than every Indian start boosting about it as if it's India's achievement, now many are not ready to accept her India, some with big heart are kind enough to award her 2nd grade Indian. Interesting....

Hi,

To all my Indian friends please dont think that the my sole reason for taking interest in this topic is to tarnish Indian image or anything for that matter, its just that i want to get the view on other side of border regarding overseas or non resident nationals.

You're right in your own context, but dont you think the situation could have been handled a lot better than being heavy handed on her.

The reason why I feel sorry for Non resident or overseas people, is that i too have been overseas for quite long time, in fact i ' m still.

at the immigration counter i could see how foreign passport holder receives VIp treatment, whereas a very close friend of mine in Europe complains how terrible it is to get Indian visa and get through the immigration counters. Bot of mentioned scenarios are nightmare, where at one end you receive elite class treatment on he other you're hated.

If it weren't for Non resident Indians than Mr. Modi would have never received such reception at Madison sq, So you see they're still Indian and they are happy to see their leader.

You can see the post#44


Hi,
And what about the NRi who project soft image and lobby for India ? how would they feel ?

I understand your point. However-

This lady was not an Indian citizen, though she was of Indian origin. I firmly believe that she should be rescued only if there is spare capacity to do so and not at the cost of an Indian citizen not being evacuated.

Please understand that NRI's are Indian citizens living in a foreign land.

I believe there is a clear priority for GoI (only in case of capacity constraints):

1. Indian citizens - includes Resident Indians as well as NRI's
2. PIO card holders (Person of Indian Origin card holders are of Indian descent but citizens of other countries)
3. Other's

At the end of the day, the Government of India exists for one goal and one goal only - to serve Indian citizens.

In case, there are no capacity constraints - like that in the Yemen operation where there was capacity available to evacuate non-Indians, then the GoI should fulfill humanitarian role by rescuing every non-national that needs to be rescued.

Hi,
So am i to understand that the work done by NRi is not appreciated India ? no one is asking to give them prefrential treatment, just treat them like local Indian

NRI's are Indian citizen my friend. They are treated the absolute same as resident Indians.

Its the PIO's who are not. PIO - Person of Indian Origin, those who are not Indian citizens.

The lady was a PIO, not an NRI. Had she been an NRI, she would have recieved priority over PIO.

@jamahir would give her his seat.

With him sitting in it.

yes, saw her photo... soft soft, plump plump, nice nice.

OCI & PIO card holder should also be treated same as Indian nationals, no excuse is acceptable in this.

Why? People needs to decide where they want to belong. They can't enjoy luxuries of uk/us citizenship and treat India as backup. India's first resposibility should be for her citizens.

Their are no second if person are PIO or OCI card holder except electoral rights.

Not true. For example, they can't buy agri land in India

Yes. Soft.

 

[Manindra]

You already differentiated the people...So those who have voting rights are first...period.....when you have left the country because of any reason, it means you no longer can avail first class citizen benefits..its simple..

We evacuated 170 foreigners before this incident.

But they can invest in many sector where foreigners are not allowed.

She expected VIP treatment by flaunting her British Passaport

She could have got one if she was a white British Passport holder.

 

[Ryuzaki]

Good.First evacuate your own citizens then others

 

[wolfschanzze]

She could have got one if she was a white British Passport holder.

naah i doubt that, this article has deliberately played this incident, just like that Dalit village in Nepal not receiving aid.

 

[Rajput_Pakistani]

Itna bara desh (so called leader) aur itna chota dil..

During a rescue operation, priority is to a human not ethnicity, nationality, race, color or religion.

That is what others are saying, the order is Indian citizens>PIO/OCI>others. If the mission was to evacuate Indians, all others will/should get second priority.
