The Enemy Property Act applies to the property of which of the following?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer A
The correct choice is: “people who took citizenship of China & Pakistan”
The Enemy Property Act, 1968 governs property left behind in India by people who migrated to, and took the citizenship of, ‘enemy’ countries after the wars of 1962 (China) and 1965 and 1971 (Pakistan). Such property vests in the Custodian of Enemy Property for India. The Enemy Property (Amendment and Validation) Act, 2017 made clear that it stays vested even if the heirs are Indian citizens. Bangladesh and Myanmar are not ‘enemy’ countries under the Act.
