75 Hindu refugees settled in Indore got citizenship
Let us tell that Hindu refugees who settled in India from Pakistan years ago have been given citizenship from time to time. But citizenship has been given. Earlier, the Madhya Pradesh government had also given citizenship to 75 people. 75 Hindu refugees settled in Indore from Pakistan were given Indian citizenship last year.
It is worth noting that Indore in Madhya Pradesh is a city where a large number of Hindus from Pakistan live. People of Sindhi society came from Pakistan years ago and settled in Indore. Although, most of these refugees have got Indian citizenship, but there are still a large number of refugees in India who have not got Indian citizenship.
