Jaripatka To Gadchiroli, India's zero-mile city crucible of Pakistan refugees, but citizenship, land ownership still distant dream

Uprooted Sindhis, Punjabis, and East Bengalis have found refuge in Nagpur, struggling for citizenship and land ownership.

The government has taken steps to grant property ownership to the second and third generations of these refugees. However, the wait for CAA implementation continues for new immigrants.
