Dear Rajnathji: September 21, 2017
1am enclosing this with letter some authenticated documents regarding
the registration in 2003 and dissolution in 2009 of a Private Limited Company in
United Kingdom with an address located in London.
The name of the company is BACKOPS LIMITED and Director and
Secretary of this company was Mr.Rahul Gandhi, presently Lok Sabha MP. The
incorporation papers of this company No : 4874597 was filed with Registrar of
Companies England and Wales on August 21, 2003 and the dissolution was on
February 17, 2009.
As you can see from the company Annual Return (on Page 6 bottom of the
enclosed document) that Mr.Rahul Gandhi has given his date of birth correctly
but has shockingly declared himself to be of British nationality with an United
Kingdom address at 51 Southgate Street, Winchester, Hampshire S023 9EH.
The Annual Return filed for this company on October 10, 2005 also lists
Mr.Rahul Gandhi as Director of the company with United Kingdom address, as
well as attestation of his nationality as British.
Mr.Rahul Gandhi held 65% of the shares of the total shares issued by this
company as on that date. Some facts were repeated, viz, that Mr.Rahul Gandhi
as having British nationality in the Annual Returns filed on October 31, 2006 as
well, Finally in the Dissolution Application as well, Mr.Rahul Gandhi states that
hisnationality is British as on the date he was appointed as Director of the said
company.
This is, prima facie, a violation of the law and the Constitutional position in
the country as stated below:
9 of the Indian Constitution every citizen of India is barred
(1) As per Article
le United
from voluntarily acquiring citizenship of any foreign State. Whil
Kingdom permits Dual Citizenship, India emphatically does not.
cle 18 prohibits an Indian citizen from accepting even foreign titles.
(2) Arti
unconstitutional
Hence Mr.Rahul Gandhi has, prima facie, committed an
act and therefore liable to be stripped of his citizenship and membership
of the Lok Sabha.
(3) No Member of Parliament can incorporate a company abroad without
prior permission under the existing laws and without declaring the same
in his nomination form as candidate for election to Parliament. FCRA is
‘one such law.
you to treat this matter with great urgency and immediately
Hence In urge
and if not,
take necessary steps to see if this prima facie evidence is rebuttable,
order that Mr.Rahul Gandhi be stripped of his citizenship, and his membership
of the Lok Sabha, forthwith.
Yours truly
AK Pyar
