Correct Answer:
Option D —
Article 10
While Articles 5 through 9 define who became a citizen at the time the Constitution was commenced, Article 10 ensures that once a person is deemed a citizen under any of those provisions, their citizenship continues, subject to any laws made by Parliament.Why Article 10 is Important
It acts as a "guarantee" clause. It states that every person who is or is deemed to be a citizen of India shall continue to be such a citizen, subject to the provisions of any law made by Parliament. This means:
Your citizenship isn't "temporary" or "at-will" by the government.
Only a formal law passed by Parliament (like the Citizenship Act of 1955) can alter or terminate these rights.
