Let's analyze each statement to determine its accuracy:
1. The Indian Constitution provides for both single and dual citizenship.
- This statement is incorrect. The Indian Constitution provides for single citizenship only. Unlike federal countries such as the USA and Switzerland, India does not have a provision for dual citizenship. Hence, this statement is false.
2. Article 6 of the Constitution deals with the rights of citizenship of certain persons who have migrated to India from Pakistan.
- This statement is correct. Article 6 specifically addresses the rights of citizenship for individuals who migrated to India from Pakistan, detailing the conditions under which they would be considered citizens of India at the commencement of the Constitution.
3. Article 9 states that no person shall be a citizen of India if they have voluntarily acquired the citizenship of any foreign State.
- This statement is correct. Article 9 explicitly mentions that a person will not be deemed a citizen of India if they have voluntarily acquired the citizenship of a foreign state.
Given the analysis, Statements 2 and 3 are correct, while Statement 1 is incorrect.
Thus, the correct answer is Option C.
