Firstly in India holding two passports is a crime. Once you register yourself as a national of another country, you are required to surrender your indian passport as per the Indian immigration and passport laws. There is no statutory provision of holding two passports in India. You may opt for an OCI instead if you desire to register your child as an American Citizen.
