Abstract
Soon after announcing plans for an orange cover for passports of 'unskilled' Indians, the government rescinded the proposal. Kalathmika Natarajan writes that the passport has always been a document of privilege through which the Indian state has defined the ideal upper class/caste citizen eligible to travel abroad.
