Arjun Namasudra, a Hindu Bengali in Assam, died by suicide in 2012 after he was asked by the Foreigners’ Tribunal to prove his Indian citizenship in spite of having a citizenship card on his father’s name by the Government of India.

After a decade, Arjun’s mother, Akol Rani has been served the same notice. She has been asked to prove her citizenship and give a written statement in court with all her documents.
