Digital Desk: The Supreme Court's Constitutional Bench has deferred its decision on the petitions challenging the constitutionality of Section 6A of the Citizenship Act. The petitions contend that the aforementioned section infringes fundamental rights.
The bench has reserved its decision after hearing arguments from both parties. The date on which the final judgement will be issued has not yet been announced.
Before reserving the verdict, the panel of CJI DY Chandrachud and Justices Surya Kant, MM Sundresh, JB Pardiwala, and Manoj Misra heard a case challenging Section 6A of the Citizenship Act 1955 for four days.
The disputed part allows foreign migrants of Indian descent who arrived in Assam between January 1st, 1966 and March 25th, 1971 to petition for Indian citizenship.
Assamese indigenous groups have argued that this law legitimises illegal infiltration from Bangladesh. The bench adjourned hearings today after hearing the arguments of intervenors and petitioners' response submissions.
Tushar Mehta, India's Solicitor General, presented the details concerning unlawful immigrants and those granted citizenship under Section 6A. The matter also informed about the border barrier.
On December 7, the Court directed the Ministry of Home Affairs to provide data on the inflow of illegal migrants to Assam and the Northeastern states after March 25, 1971, as well as data on various aspects such as citizenship grants to immigrants over time and the functioning of the Foreigners Tribunals.
