Ur right
Citizenship Act, 1955 Section 5(1) (c) Citizenship by registration. - (1) Subject to the provisions of this section and such other conditions and restrictions as may be prescribed, the Central Government may, on an application made in this behalf, register as a citizen of India any person not being an illegal migrant who is not already such citizen by virtue of the Constitution or of any other provision of this Act if he belongs to any of the following categories, namely:
(c) a person who is married to a citizen of India and is ordinarily resident in India for seven years before making an application for registration
so he has to wait 7 years to get citizenship after living here
Unlike USA where a person marries US citizen , it automatically becomes citizen of USA . This is main reason (fake marriage in exchange of money) why so many Mexican are USA citizen
