Its very important to understand problem and it consequence . And just debating and bahas won't fix things. We do crapy bahas to much and don't take step to fix. It's definately time to address this in some way, when 7/8 % of its people are living abroad.

Logic that people living in India from nepali heritage and other Indians might use or take advantage is not that valid. It's not issue of law, if they make law of giving dual citizenship, thay need to regulate it well, and I don't think they will give duel citizenship to people who don't have single citizenship. Now if they want single citizenship of Nepal, they would try to get today also. So what the point saying just because Nepal start giving duel ( secondary citizenship ) based on older citizenship record, more indian will want nepali citizenship. It doesn't add up to me. May be I am missing some thing small but it doesn't sounds much logical.

It's decision of people of Nepal ,and all other people chilling abroad can't decide what is right, either it's not right to lobby for it strongly. They can put their demand, and people living in Nepal has full right to decide the way that want. Personally I think they can give scale down version of citizenship to people who already had nepali citizenship for several yrs and got citizenship of other country. Thay can put some control like he/should need to have nepali citizenship for last 10 yrs to get dual one. And they can strip down political right. I don't agree with giving voting right considering nepals open border.

But also argument that just because we are brom as nepali and from nepali parents we are naturally entitled to nepali citizenship is not correct. We will always be nepali enthnically, but citizenship is right granted by state for it's people to excercise their right and state can make definately make law regarding people who migrate or intent to migrate permanently and dont contribute much actively. We usuallly give example of india, but india also doesn't have full dues citizenship law. Western conuntries are different because of their mature burocratic setup/record keeping and regulation.
