A fresh update from the united states
Donald trump, the American billionaire, has finally been elected president. However, indians living in the united states are extremely concerned about his triumph. 250,000 individuals of indian descent may have an unclear future if donald trump follows through on his pre-election pledges.
It makes sense that Americans of indian descent are now living in fear. trump had threatened to take harsh measures on immigrants in the past. According to sources, he is also keeping an eye on those who are lawfully in the country on a visa, in addition to immigrants.
"On my first day in office, I will bring forth a law that will initiate the largest deportation process in American history," declared Republican nominee Donald Trump. Anyone born in the united states is automatically granted U.S. citizenship by birthright, as stated in the Constitution. trump, however, wants to change this provision to allow for the acquisition of U.S. citizenship by birthright.
On his first day in office, trump is said to be signing a "executive order." This decree states that children of immigrants born in the united states will no longer be citizens of the united states by birth. In order to be eligible for "birthright citizenship," one or both parents must be citizens of the United States.
However, there are around a million indians who are awaiting green cards. According to government projections, people could have to wait a another 50 years to be granted green card status. Approximately half a million of them will probably pass away before that date, according to basic estimates. Consequently, this new regulation may result in the loss of citizenship for some 250,000 immigrant children.
