Amritsar: MP Gurjeet Singh Aujla has urged the Ministry of External Affairs to allow Indian-origin children possessing Overseas Citizenship of India (OCI) cards to come to India. In a letter addressed to Foreign Minister S Jaishankar, he said in the wake of Covid-19 threat, many NRIs were stuck in India, but their children, who were foreign nationals by virtue of their birth, could not unite with their families due to the ban on the entry of foreigners. He requested the minister to allow OCI card holders to enter India so that they could be their parents. TNS
