There seems to be confusion not just on this forum but in general in India as well, as to what NRI voting rights entails. The following link may shed some light on the matter.
http://www.tribuneindia.com/2006/20060122/world.htm#2 One of the extracts from this article is as follows: The government cannot grant dual citizenship to NRIs. These people are Indian nationals and full citizens of India. They, therefore, do not need reassertion of their rights as nationals of India. In case any one of them ceases to be Indian national/citizen, he or she becomes a foreign national and, therefore is no longer an NRI( the Indian Income tax Departments description of Indians who are not taxable in India as they are liable to paying tax in another country). Hope this article sheds some light on the matter. This closes the topic for me. Elisabeth __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
