The National Citizenship Act is legislation that defines how a person becomes a citizen of a particular country. It sets the rules for naturalization, citizenship by birth, and other methods of acquiring citizenship. The act specifies rights and responsibilities of citizens, criteria for eligibility, and processes for applications or denials. Essentially, it establishes the legal framework that determines who is recognized as a citizen and under what conditions, ensuring clarity and consistency in nationality laws.
