OCI Alert: The Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA), has now tightened rules for Overseas Citizens of India (OCI), stating that registrations can be revoked if the card holder is sentenced to at least two years in prison or is charge-sheeted for an offence carrying a punishment of seven years or more.
The OCI card allows Indian-origin foreign nationals to visit India without a visa.
The move is aimed at tightening the legal framework governing OCI status, which grants certain rights and privileges to foreign citizens of Indian origin, according to Akashvani.
