The Congress on Tuesday said the Narendra Modi government had been silent on allegations about Congress President Rahul Gandhi's citizenship for the last four years because they themselves knew the truth. Acting on a complaint from BJP MP Subramanian Swamy, the MHA has asked Mr. Gandhi to provide the “factual position” of his citizenship. Mr. Swamy has alleged that Mr. Gandhi had declared his nationality as “British” in documents related to a United Kingdom company that he was a director in. Mr. Gandhi's sister and party general secretary Priyanka Gandhi said, “The whole of India knows that Rahul Gandhi is an Indian. “We will give a befitting reply,” he said on the MHA’s Monday letter to Mr. Gandhi.
