Recommendation on draft citizenship bill 2016
Recently the Cabinet has approved the Draft Citizenship Law 2016. We understand that the matter is under the consideration of the Parliament. We feel the draft law contains provisions that are of grave concern which may lead to a situation where some of the community could be statelessness if this law enacts by the parliament. Council of Minorities has started advocacy on draft citizenship 2016 and conducted a workshop, round table, Press Conference and live radio show and published 2 publications on draft citizenship bill-2016
