SSC CPO - 03 Oct 2023 - Shift 2 • General Awareness • Q93

Which of the following has been INCORRECTLY listed as a condition for becoming a citizen of India?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. Citizenship through acquisition of property.

Citizenship through acquisition of property has been incorrectly listed as a condition for becoming a citizen of India. The correct conditions for Indian citizenship include:

  • Citizenship by birth
  • Citizenship by naturalization
  • Citizenship by descent

These conditions are defined under the Indian Constitution and the Citizenship Act of 1955. Property ownership is not a criterion for acquiring Indian citizenship. Instead, citizenship is granted based on factors like place of birth, descent, and specific requirements for naturalization.
