By the way, “Native” born citizen is not a “Natural” born citizen. An anchor baby assumes the country allegiance of the Father, in this instance India.
This is nonsense. U.S. citizenship is a domestic decision determined by U.S. law alone. The U.S. does not tell India who are citizens of India.

(a) Acquisition of U.S. citizenship generally is not affected by the fact that the parents may be in the United States temporarily or illegally; and that; and
(b) A child born in an immigration detention center physically located in the United States is considered to have been born in the United States and be subject to its jurisdiction. This is so even if the child's parents have not been legally admitted to the United States and, for immigration purposes, may be viewed as not being in the United States.

You are correct. The law is crystal clear regarding “Citizenship”...In this case “Birthright Citizenship”.
Dig a little deeper. The fathers allegiance is determined by his citizenship, and not where he resides at her birth. In this case India...He is a citizen of India, and Nikki is a “Citizen” of the US. I wish I could quote chapter and verse, but I know what I read.
The thread discussed “Natural” Born Citizenship which stipulates that at least one parent be a US citizen at the time of little Nikki’s birth. She is not eligible.
