点评:I visited the Partition Museum in Amritsar, Punjab on 20 April 2024 and was charged Rs250 admission fee as an Overseas Citizen of India (OCI) card holder, same fee as Foreigners. Fees for Indian citizens are only Rs10.
I refused to pay the foreigner fee and was denied entry into the museum. Why is the Partition Museum go against the guidelines of the Ministry of Home Affairs with regards to benefits accorded to OCIs?
I have written to the Partition Museum of Amritsar twice and they have not replied. The museum must stop the practice of charging OCIs the same fees as other foreigners because the Ministry of Home Affairs guidelines (FOREIGNERS DIVISION F. No. - 26011/Misc./47/2019 - OCI) date of publication 22.07.2021 clearly states that all OCI holders have parity with Indian nationals with regards to paying fees at who visit national parks, national monuments, historical sites, museums or wildlife sanctuaries in India. Partition Museum, Amritsar, please explain why your establishment is shortchanging OCI holders. Thank you.
翻译:2024 年 4 月 20 日,我参观了旁遮普邦阿姆利则的分治博物馆,作为印度海外公民 (OCI) 卡持有者,我被收取了 250 卢比的入场费,与外国人的费用相同。印度公民的费用仅为 10 卢比。
我拒绝支付外国人费用,因此被拒绝进入博物馆。为什么分治博物馆违反了内政部关于给予 OCI 的福利的指导方针?
我已经两次写信给阿姆利则分治博物馆,但他们没有回复。博物馆必须停止向 OCI 收取与其他外国人相同的费用的做法,因为内政部指南(外国人部门 F. No. - 26011/Misc./47/2019 - OCI)发布日期 2021 年 7 月 22 日明确指出,所有 OCI 持有者在参观印度国家公园、国家纪念碑、历史遗址、博物馆或野生动物保护区时,在支付费用方面与印度国民相同。分治博物馆,阿姆利则,请解释为什么贵机构要少付 OCI 持有者的费用。谢谢。
