Obtaining a British citizenship has just got tougher.
New Delhi: New rules are being introduced for immigration to the United Kingdom and it could now take up to 10 years of residence in that country to obtain a citizenship.
Until now, immigrants could apply for a British passport after five years of residence in that country and after passing a citizenship test.
Immigrants will need to earn points to earn a British passport and these will be based on their skills, jobs, qualifications, their language ability as well as behaviour.
The UK government says that 'bad behaviour', or any 'un-British' activity - like for example protesting against British troops - will result in deduction of points.
