Indian PolityCitizenship, Emergency & Special Provisions
In India the concept of single citizenship is adopted from
- a.The French Constitution.
- b.The Swiss Constitution.
- c.The Constitution of United States of America.
- d.The British Constitution.
Answer: (D) The British Constitution.
Single citizenship, along with the parliamentary system and the rule of law, was borrowed from the British Constitution. The USA has dual (federal and state) citizenship, so it is the tempting wrong option; France gave liberty-equality-fraternity, and Switzerland is not a source of this feature.
