New Delhi: Actor Imran Khan, nephew of Bollywood superstar Aamir Khan, has reportedly been directed by Indian authorities to leave the country by October 28 following his participation in a protest demanding electoral reforms.
Khan, an American citizen of Indian origin, holds an Overseas Citizen of India (OCI) card, which allows eligible foreign nationals of Indian origin to visit and stay in India under specified conditions.
His reported participation in the electoral reforms protest has brought his immigration status into focus, with authorities ordering him to leave the country by the stipulated deadline. However,
an OCI card does not confer full Indian citizenship. OCI cardholders are not entitled to vote in Indian elections or contest elections as Indian citizens.
The reported order raises questions about the circumstances surrounding the directive and its implications for Khan's continued stay in India. Further details about the authorities' stated reasons and any response from the actor would help clarify the case.
