Supreme Court calls PIL seeking probe into Rahul Gandhi’s citizenship frivolous

“Can we start making roving inquiries,” the bench asked while turning the petition as “frivolous”.

BJP leader Subramanian Swamy, a couple of weeks ago, had alleged that Rahul Gandhi had declared himself a British national in documents before the company law authorities in the United Kingdom, where Rahul was working briefly.

He further wrote to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, demanding that the Congress MP be stripped of his Indian citizenship as well as his parliamentary membership.

The Congress had, however, rejected the allegations of nationality against Rahul saying that it is a “bunch of falsehood”.
