   MEMORANDUM

Gurpreet Singh, a natiye and citizen of India, petitions pro se for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) order denying Singh’s motion to reconsider his claims for asylum, withholding of removal, and relief under the Convention Against Torture. Our jurisdiction is governed by 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We review for abuse of discretion the agency’s denial of a motion for reconsideration. Cano-Merida v. INS, 311 F.3d 960, 964 (9th Cir. 2002). We dismiss in part and deny in part the petition for review.

We lack jurisdiction to consider the well-founded fear contentions that Singh failed to raise before the BIA. See Barron v. Ashcroft, 358 F.3d 674, 677-78 (9th Cir. 2004).

The BIA did not abuse its discretion in denying Singh’s motion to reconsider his claims because he failed to identify a legal or factual error in the BIA’s prior decision. See 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2(b)(1) (a motion to reconsider must identify errors of fact or law in a prior decision); Ma v. Ashcroft, 361 F.3d 553, 558 (9th Cir. 2004).

PETITION FOR REVIEW DISMISSED in part; DENIED in part.
