MEMORANDUM **

Ranjit Singh Ghotra, a native and citizen of India, petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) order denying his motion to reopen removal proceedings. We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252.

In assessing Ghotra’s claim -of ineffective assistance of counsel, the BIA did not have the benefit of Barajas-Romero v. Lynch, 846 F.3d 351 (9th Cir. 2017), which holds that the “one central reason” standard applies to asylum but not to withholding of removal. In addition, the BIA did not address whether the proposed particular social group was cognizable. Because the BIA’s rejection of Ghotra’s ineffective assistance claim relies in part on the agency’s underlying denial of withholding of removal for failure to show “one central reason” and because the BIA did not address whether Ghotra’s proposed particular social group is cognizable, we remand for the BIA to address his ineffective assistance claim.

PETITION FOR REVIEW GRANTED; REMANDED.
