MEMORANDUM **

Santokh Singh, a native of India, petitions for review of a decision of the Board of Immigration Appeals (the BIA) denying his petition for asylum, withholding of deportation, and relief under the Convention Against Torture (CAT). He raises a variety of issues that we need not address because even were we disposed to decide any one of them in his favor, his petition faces two critical obstacles. First, we lack jurisdiction to review Singh’s asylum claim, as the BIA determined Singh’s application to be untimely based upon the Immigration Judge’s finding that Singh had failed to establish his date of entry into the United States. See 8 U.S.C. § 1158(a)(3); Ramadan v. Gonzales, 479 F.3d 646, 654 (9th Cir. 2007). Singh’s petition does not raise a question of law regarding this finding. Second, as to Singh’s remaining claims, the change in country conditions rebutted any presumption of future persecution. The 1997 addendum to the State Department’s Country Report stated that there is “no evidence” that Sikhs face persecution or even harassment and no basis for believing that support for Akali Dal would lead to persecution. We have sometimes required what we have termed “individualized” rebuttal of a presumption of persecution, but we also have relied on “generalized materials.” Sowe v. Mukasey, 538 F.3d 1281, 1285-86 (9th Cir. 2008). In this case largely public facts show Sikhs enjoying liberty in India. India is a country whose prime minister since 2004 has been a Sikh. The Immigration Judge analyzed how country conditions would affect Singh.

The petitioner provided no evidence challenging these conclusions.

Accordingly, Singh’s asylum claim is dismissed and his withholding of removal and CAT claims are DENIED.
