ED Summons Karnataka BJP Worker Notorious for Rahul Gandhi British Citizenship Claim

The Enforcement Directorate (ED) has issued summons to K.G. Mohan, a prominent Karnataka BJP worker, in connection with a foreign exchange violation case. This development brings renewed attention to Mohan, who is widely known for his persistent and controversial claims regarding Congress leader Rahul Gandhi's alleged British citizenship.

Mohan, a resident of Bengaluru, has been a vocal proponent of the assertion that Rahul Gandhi holds dual nationality, specifically British citizenship.

These allegations, which have been consistently and vehemently denied by Rahul Gandhi and the Congress party, have been a source of significant political contention for several years.

Sources indicate that the ED's current summons to Mohan is directly related to a foreign exchange violation case under their purview.

This isn't the first time Mohan has faced action from the financial probe agency. Previously, the ED had attached properties worth Rs 20.37 lakh belonging to Mohan in connection with the same foreign exchange case, underscoring the seriousness of the ongoing investigation.

Beyond the financial probe, Mohan has actively pursued his claims about Rahul Gandhi's citizenship through legal channels.

He had previously filed a petition in the Karnataka High Court, seeking Gandhi's disqualification from Parliament based on his alleged British nationality. After the High Court dismissed his petition, Mohan escalated the matter, filing an appeal in the Supreme Court. However, the nation's apex court also rejected his plea, maintaining that the claims lacked sufficient substantiation.

Rahul Gandhi has repeatedly asserted his Indian citizenship, refuting all allegations of holding foreign nationality.

He has consistently maintained that he is a proud citizen of India and has dismissed these claims as politically motivated smear campaigns aimed at tarnishing his image and political career.

The ED's latest action against Mohan, while focused on financial irregularities, inevitably intertwines with the political narrative he has tirelessly promoted.

This situation highlights the complex interplay between legal investigations and politically charged allegations in the Indian landscape, keeping the long-standing controversy in the public eye.
