Although tensions have escalated between nuclear-armed neighbours Pakistan and India, a new report highlighted on Saturday that 461 Indian nationals sought Pakistani citizenship during the last 10 years.

According to a report published in a local English daily, the lion’s share of foreigners seeking Pakistani citizenship came from India.

Out of the 635 foreigners to become citizens of the country, 461 came from India. Afghanistan and Sri Lanka came in second and third spots.

Four Chinese nationals were also present in the list.

During last month, tensions with India escalated dramatically after the Pulwama suicide bombing by a Jaish-e-Mohammed cadre. India accused Pakistan and conducted the first air raid inside its territory since 1971. Pakistan retaliated and shot down an Indian plane inside its airspace, capturing the pilot.

However, despite the Modi-led government’s offensive, Prime Minister Imran Khan said Pakistan would choose peace and also sent the Indian pilot home via Wagah. Pakistan also asserted that it would take action against the ones responsible, if on its soil, for cross-border terrorism.

After mediations by international countries, both neighbours backed off and subsequently sent the high commissioners back, who been asked to report home in the wake of tensions. Also, the Line of Control (LoC) ceasefire violations are frequent.

Pakistan has granted nationality to at least 298 Indian emigrants in the last five years, according to the Interior Ministry.

“From 2012 till April 14, 2017, a total number of 298 Indian emigrants have been granted Pakistani citizenship,” the Interior Ministry said in a statement on Saturday.

The statement was issued in response to a question by the ruling Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz lawmaker Sheikh Rohail Asghar in the National Assembly, the Express Tribune reported.

In 2012, 48 Indian emigrants were granted Pakistani nationality, which rose to 75 in 2013 and 76 in 2014.

Only 15 were given nationality in 2015, while 69 got it in 2016; until April 14 this year, 15 Indians got nationality, the statement said.

Pakistan is believed to be a country where getting nationality has always been a difficult task, but innumerable illegal immigrants from many countries, especially India, Afghanistan, Bangladesh and Burma, are living here, it added.

There is one well-known case of awarding Pakistani nationality to an Indian national in the recent past.

An Indian woman, whose husband died years ago, was granted Pakistani citizenship on the order of former Interior Minister Chaudhry Nisar Ali Khan in March last year.

Her citizenship application had been pending with the ministry since 2008. The woman had been married to a Pakistani man a long time back. After his death, her stepsons allegedly deprived her of her inheritance. PTI

One wierd thing about these Indian posters is that they are always pretending to be Chinese... their names , pictures etc .
They have the worst kind of inferiority complex on planet earth.

Reminds me of the father of the nation with impeccable suits ties and cigars. Sometime when you admire something you ape it. read some Laozi quotes before answering.
