1Opinion of the Court

RYMER, Circuit Judge:

Mohinder Singh, a native and citizen of India, petitions for review of the denial of his application for asylum. The Immigration Judge (IJ) denied Singh’s application for asylum because she found that he was not credible. The Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA) summarily affirmed. Singh argues that substantial evidence does not support the IJ’s adverse credibility determination and that he established asylum eligibility based on past persecution. The record supports the IJ’s adverse credibility determination, and we affirm.

*1141I

Singh is a Sikh from the Punjab state in India.…
