New Delhi: Passport ko lekar ek mahatvapurn spashtikaran saamne aaya hai. Videsh Mantralaya (Ministry of External Affairs) ne kaha hai ki passport mool roop se ek travel document hai, na ki citizenship ka antim ya nirnayak proof. Is bayan ke baad passport aur nagrikta se jude kanooni pehluon par charcha tez ho gayi hai.
Mantralaya ke mutabik, passport ka uddeshya kisi vyakti ko desh ke bahar yatra karne ke liye adhikarik pahchan aur anumati pradan karna hota hai. Halanki, kisi vyakti ki nagrikta ka nirnay keval passport ke aadhar par nahi kiya jata.
Adhikaarion ne spasht kiya ki citizenship se jude maamle sambandhit kanoon, records aur anya adhikarik dastavezon ke aadhar par tay kiye jate hain. Passport ek mahatvapurn identity document zaroor hai, lekin ise nagrikta ka poorn aur antim saboot nahi maana ja sakta.
Kanooni visheshagyon ka kehna hai ki passport jaari karne ke liye citizenship se judi jaankari ka upyog kiya jata hai, lekin kisi vivad ya kanooni prakriya mein anya dastavez aur records bhi mahatvapurn bhoomika nibhate hain.
Videsh Mantralaya ke is bayan ne passport aur citizenship ke beech ke antar ko lekar logon ke beech chal rahi kai galatfahmiyon ko door karne ki koshish ki hai, saath hi ek nai bahas ko bhi janam diya hai.
