The Enforcement Directorate (ED) has issued a summons to a BJP worker from Karnataka, S. Vignesh Shishir, concerning his petition in the Allahabad High Court challenging Rahul Gandhi’s citizenship. Shishir claimed Gandhi holds British citizenship. The ED has instructed Shishir to appear on September 9th with all relevant evidence and documentation pertaining to the case, citing provisions under the Foreign Exchange Management Act (FEMA).
The ED’s investigation under FEMA focuses on potential violations of foreign exchange laws. The Congress party chose not to comment on the situation.
