Government cannot randomly target individuals for citizenship proof: Supreme Court

The Supreme Court ruled that the government cannot randomly target individuals for citizenship proof without valid grounds, emphasising that Section 9 of the Foreigners Act cannot be invoked based on hearsay or vague allegations. Justices Vikram Nath and Ahsanuddin Amanullah overturned a decision declaring a person an illegal Bangladeshi migrant, highlighting the importance of providing individuals with relevant information to defend themselves against such accusations.
