Original Text

No citizen of Nepal may be deprived of the right to obtain citizenship. There is provision of single federal citizenship with State identity.

💡 Plain Language Explanation

Nepal has ONE citizenship - federal. States give you a regional identity but there is no separate provincial citizenship. No citizen can be stripped of citizenship rights.

🇳🇵 नेपाली व्याख्या

एकल संघीय नागरिकता - कुनै नागरिकलाई नागरिकता पाउने हकबाट वञ्चित गर्न सकिँदैन।

Good Aspects

Prevents statelessness. Single citizenship prevents fragmentation.

⚠️ Concerns

Non-resident Nepalis in South Asia still cannot get non-resident citizenship unlike those in non-SAARC countries.
