Sonia Gandhi gets Delhi court notice on plea for FIR over 1980 voter list entry
- •A Delhi court issued a notice on a plea challenging a lower court's refusal to order an FIR against Sonia Gandhi.
- •The plea concerns Gandhi's inclusion in the 1980 voter list, three years before she acquired Indian citizenship in 1983, and alleges forged documents.
- •The court has sought responses from Sonia Gandhi and the Delhi Police, with the next hearing set for January 6, 2026.
- •The original petition was rejected by a lower court, which stated citizenship matters are for the Central government and electoral roll eligibility for the ECI.
Why It Matters: It scrutinizes a major political figure's voter registration before citizenship.
