Today, I am so happy, the House is so full. There is a legislation, which is important for our NRIs abroad, those Non-Resident Indians who have done a great service to India, the Citizenship (Amendment) Bill, 2003. If you feel, we can pass this legislation. If there is no objection, as I feel, we can pass it without any discussion. SOME HON. MEMBERS:Yes, Madam. THE DEPUTY CHAIRMAN: Okay. Then, Mr. L.K. Advani to move the Bill ...(Interruptions)... SHRI SURESH PACHOURI (Madhya Pradesh): Madam, Dr. Manmohan Singh wants to say something about the Citizenship (Amendment) Bill. THE DEPUTY CHAIRMAN: Let Advaniji move the motion, then, I will allow him. THE CITIZENSHIP (AMENDMENT) BILL, 2003 THE DEPUTY PRIME MINISTER, IN CHARGE OF THE MINISTRY OF HOME AFFAIRS AND MINISTRY OF PERSONNEL, PUBLIC GRIEVANCES AND PENSIONS (SHRI L.K.

Wherever they have gone, they have distinguished themselves; they have achieved heights in various walks of life. They have merged themselves in the local nation also. They have contributed to the development of the nation where they have settled, and they continue to have warm ties with India and India's culture.
