Restrictions on OCI Holders | India to Canadian Citizenship Disadvantages

"🇮🇳 OCI vs. Indian Citizenship 🇮🇳
While the term OCI (Overseas Citizen of India) might sound like full citizenship, there are important distinctions to be aware of. 👁️
🚫 No Indian Passport:
Unlike naturalized Indian citizens, OCI cardholders cannot apply for an Indian passport. Indian passports are exclusively reserved for Indian citizens. 🛂
🚫 Limited Rights:
Here's a snapshot of the restrictions imposed on OCI cardholders:
❌ No Voting Rights
❌ No Membership in Legislative Bodies or Parliament
❌ No High-Ranking Positions like President, Vice President, or Judge
❌ Public Service Appointments Require Central Government Approval
❌ No Acquisition of Agricultural Land or Farmhouses in India 🌾
Stay informed and keep those differences in mind! 🤔 #OCI #IndianCitizenship #KnowYourRights
