⚖️ Supreme Court clarifies CAA: Citizenship is not automatic, rules Court | 10 Dec 2025

Описание: Supreme Court Clarifies: CAA Citizenship NOT Automatic! ⚖️🇮🇳🔥

The Supreme Court has issued a major clarification on the Citizenship (Amendment) Act, 2019 — ruling that citizenship under the CAA is not automatic.
Every applicant must still undergo full legal scrutiny, meet all naturalisation requirements, and receive government approval.

This clarification comes while over 230 constitutional challenges to the Act are still pending before the Court, making this a landmark development for polity, governance, and constitutional law. 📘⚖️

🧭 Why This Matters (UPSC GS Paper 2 – Polity & Governance):

✴️ SC: CAA citizenship will NOT be automatic → applicants must pass legal checks
✴️ CAA covers six non-Muslim minorities from Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Pakistan
✴️ Eligibility: Must have entered India before 31 Dec 2014
✴️ Residency requirement reduced from 11 years → 5 years
✴️ Challenges revolve around Article 14, secularism & Basic Structure
✴️ Conflict with Assam Accord (1971 cut-off)
✴️ Linked controversies: NRC, demographic impact, exclusion of other persecuted groups

A highly probable topic for Prelims, Mains GS-II, Essay, and Interview.
