Answer and explanation

Correct answer D

The Citizenship Act, 1955 provides five ways of acquiring Indian citizenship: birth (s. 3), descent (s. 4), registration (s. 5), naturalisation (s. 6) and incorporation of territory (s. 7). All four listed modes are therefore correct. Registration is not in the list, but its absence does not make any of the four listed modes wrong.
