Kerala’s Stateless Generation: The Hidden Struggles of Migrants and Their Citizenship Crisis 🌍

There are several people who are stateless living in the northern districts of Kerala, such as Malappuram and Kannur. This include the first and second generation of people who migrated to Pakistan in search of work. A 26-year-old Mafeeda was born in Kannur district of Kerala, where she lives now. Though she was born in India, she is not a citizen of this country. Just like Mafeeda, a 52-year-old Shahid from Kathiroor still carries a Pakistani passport. His father migrated to Pakistan in the 1960s and Shahid and his three siblings were born in Karachi. Like Mafeeda, his parents too used to come to Kerala every year in the initial years of migration. Later, they had to take the Pakistani passport. <br /><br />Their struggle to buy land, acquiring a passport, getting a better job, or even better education is an unbelievable task. <br /><br />Reporter: Shahina K.
