The government has said persons who migrated from Pakistan to India are considered for citizenship under the Citizenship Act, 1955 and other relevant rules. Such minorities from Pakistan are eligible for the grant of Long Term Visa (LTV). This information was given in a written reply in the Rajya Sabha by Minister of State for Home Affairs Kiren Rijiju. He said Pakistani Hindus who have been granted LTV can take up any employment in the private sector. He said a package for Jammu and Kashmir announced in 2008, provides for concessions to the children and grandchildren of West Pakistan refugees settled in Jammu and Kashmir in the matter of admission in the technical and educationalinstitutions approved by AICTE.
