NEW DELHI: The Union home ministry on Friday lifted curbs on entry of Overseas Citizens of India (OCI) card holders in the country but subject to conditions.
In an order issued today, the ministry said OCI card holders with pressing family emergencies will be allowed entry into the country. "Couples where one spouse is an OCI card holder and the other is an Indian national and they have permanent residence in India," will also be granted entry, along with university students who have valid cards and Indian citizens as parents. "Minor children born to Indian nationals abroad and holding OCI cards," are also allowed, according to the order.
