Vemulawada MLA Ch Ramesh submits key documents to High Court

Hyderabad : Vemulawada MLA Ch Ramesh on Wednesday submitted key citizenship documents to the High Court about his nativity, and the court asked the Home Ministry to submit an affidavit.

As ordered by the High Court in its last hearing on citizenship issue of Ch Ramesh, his lawyers submitted important old and new documents, which were officially translated into English, pertaining to the consent of German authorities to acquire Indian citizenship, letter of mandatory information of acquiring Indian citizenship to the concerned authority as well as letter of acknowledgement and approval of the mandatory obligations by the concerned authority all from the year 2008 to 2020.

It can be recalled that Ramesh lost his Indian citizenship in 1993 when he voluntarily acquired German citizenship and in the same way, he has lost his German citizenship after he voluntarily acquired Indian citizenship in 2009. This is in confirmation with the existing laws in both the countries.

According to the TRS leader, the Home Ministry has failed to submit affidavit with any evidence documents regarding dual citizenship issue of Ramesh from German authorities as ordered by the High Court.

The High Court was serious that old documents were submitted in the form of memos even though a detailed affidavit was asked for with full information from Germany. It has ordered the Home Ministry to submit the affidavit on January 20, for the next hearing.
