Sirs,
1.
That some powerful person or persons, having ‘Italian
Citizenship by birth’, get Indian Citizenships under the Indian Citizenship Act, 1955, which otherwise should have been
declared void under the Constitution of India, if the Union of India would not
have played against the proprietary of the integrity and sovereignty of the Constitution of India. The some of amongst them
even get constitutional positions holding the Constitutional Offices, contrary to provisions under Article 84, 99 and 102
of the Constitution of India. As such vides the application No.RTI/PMO/02/2006 dated 22nd August 2006, under Section
6 of Right to Information Act, 2005, before the Central Public Information Officer, Prime Minister’s Office, New Delhi-110003,
I wanted to know from the Central Public Information Officer, Prime Minister’s Office, New Delhi-110003 that what action
the Government of India have taken or is contemplating to take in compliance of the Article 102
of the Constitution of India, so one having Italian Citizenship by Birth, even if he or
she might be claiming to be renounced his/her Italian Citizenship, should be disqualified for being chosen as, and for being
a member of either House of Parliament under Article 102 of the Constitution of India.
2. That Citizenship
Law of Italy and Constitution of
Italy in Italian Language are available at the Website of the Government of
Italy: http://www.giustizia.it/cassazione/leggi/191_92.html and http://www.quirinale.it/costituzione/costituzione.htm respectively. The English translated copies of the Constitution of Italy, obtained by me through Electronic process (Internet) was downloaded from an Website
http://www.oefre.unibe.ch/law/icl/it00000_html, Controlled and managed by renowned ‘International Constitutional
Law Organizations’, and was translated by Prof. Carlo Fusaro, (the then working
as an Faculty of Political Sciences ‘C. Alfier’, under Department of Public Law, University of Florence, Italy),
with the help of Dr Federico Signorini and Dr Ignazio Castellucci. The English Translation of the ‘Citizenship Law of Italy’ was obtained
by me electronically by me from the website: http://www.legislationline.org/legislation.php?tid=11&lid=1436 controlled and managed by
the ‘Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe’. The aforesaid English
Translation of the ‘Constitution of Italy’ and ‘Citizenship Law of Italy’ are expert’s opinions,
under Section 45 of the Indian Evidence Act, 1872, till not proved otherwise.
3.
That in accordance with the aforesaid English translated copy of the aforesaid documents, under Sub-clause (a) of the Clause 1 of Article 1 read with Sub-clause (c)
of the Clause 1 of Article 13 of the Citizenship Law of Italy and Part I under Title I under Article 14(1) and 16(2) under
Part I, Title IV, Article 48(3) and 54(1) of the constitution of Italy, one ‘Italian by birth’ never can renounce his/her “Right
to Citizenship of Italy”, which undoubtedly prevails permanently, irrevocably, unequivocally and forever, even if one might have
renounced his/her Citizenship of Italy. It is always recoverable at any time even in remote future, on the expiry of one year
from the date of their declaration to the effect in the prescribed manner, without any interference from the administration
of the Italy. Thus renouncement of Italian
Citizenship, if any, is only temporary in character and nature and never be final. Thus ‘Italian citizen by birth’
always having allegiance to the Constitution of Italy, even if he/she gets citizenship of India, under dual citizenship or otherwise.
4.
That in
the worldwide websites of the embassies of the Italy
under the specific page under heading: Citizenship this is referred in clear terms that:
“GETTING ITALIAN CITIZENSHIP
BACK ONCE LOST
Italian citizenship can be reinstated
once it is lost:
Automatically
One year from the date in which residence is established in Italy,
except in the case of renunciation within that same period.”
5.
That aforesaid
opinion is conformed from the websites of the embassy of the Italy
in Chicago, which under the specific page under heading: Citizenship referred in clear terms under the heading “PLEASE
NOTE” that: THE ITALIAN ADMINISTRATIVE AND LEGAL SYSTEMS DO NOT FORBED A PERSON FROM HOLDING DUAL CITIZENSHIP. AT THE
SAME TIME, ALL REGULATIONS PERTAINING TO THIS SUBJECT MATTER MAKE IT VERY CLEAR THAT THE MERE FACT THAT ONE HOLDS ANOTHER
CITIZENSHIP DOES NOT EXEMPT THE INDIVIDUAL FROM ABIDING BY THE ITALIAN LAWS.” And further referred that ”PURSUANT
TO ITALIAN LAW, A CITIZEN OF ITALY, EVEN IF HOLDER OF ANOTHER CITIZENSHIP IS ONLY ITALIAN, BECAUSE IN VIEW OF THE LAW IT IS
THE ITALIAN CITIZENSHIP THAT PREVAILS OVER ANY OTHER.”
6.
That my said application
was transferred by the Central Public Information Officer of the Prime Minister’s Office to the Ministry of Law and
Justice. However, the matter was decided by Shri N. L. Meena, Joint
Secretary & Legislative Counsel, & the Appellate Authority under Section 19 of the RTI Act, 2005 from the Ministry
of the Law and Justice, Legislative Department, Vide Memo Letter: Appeal Case No. 5-F. No. 4/2006-RTI(P) dated 18.12.2006
decided that ‘this Department is not concerned with the subject matter’. Since the aforesaid application was placed
before the Prime Minister’s Office, hence such reply is presumed to be from the entire Union of India, and appears an
act of transfer of the responsibility from one to another Department to save the holding of the Constitutional Offices by
‘Italian Citizens by birth’ having their says political powers.
7. That with the object to remove any doubt that union of India, under
political pressure or otherwise is playing with the proprietary of the integrity and sovereignty of the Constitution of India,
I have further submitted application No. RTI/MEA/01/2007, dated 15th January, 2007, before the Central Public Information
Officer, Ministry of External Affairs, New Delhi, stating that I want to know through you that whether the Government of India, represented by the Ministry of
the External Affairs, ever tried to find out the fact, with the help of its Embassy in Italy that in view of the Section 5(1)(c)
of the Citizenship Act, 1955 of India, the following provisions of the Constitution of Italy and Citizenship Law of Italy,
hit the provision of the Article 102 of the Constitution of India, whenever Indian Citizenship is granted to any one, having
Italian by birth. In the said application I referred the Italian Provisions, which provides as follows:
Constitution

of External Affairs (RTI Division) to Shri B. V. Gopinath, Director & CPIO of Ministry of Home Affairs, Jaisalmer House,
New Delhi, claiming that Ministry of Home Affairs is the nodel Ministry in respect of granting of Citizenship.
9.
That from the aforesaid views taken and reply made
by the different Departments of the Union of India, this is shows in amply clear terms that the
Union of India is intended to hide true facts from Indian Citizenry relating to actual impact of the Italian Laws, causes
serious threats to the integrity of the proprietary and sovereignty of the Constitution of India.
10. This is also a matter of the fact that I am a severe
victim of the Politic-Crime-Nexus. I placed the full facts in the knowledge of the Union of India, including the Home Ministry
through various representations. But no results. As such I am well conversant with the fact that the Union of India is neither
duty bound to the statute nor is interested to protect the fundamental rights of the citizenry, whenever such rights are infringed
or seriously grabbed under politics-crime-nexus. I am raising the issue of Italian Citizenship vis-à-vis the National Importance,
just to protect the integrity
of the proprietary and sovereignty of the Constitution of India,
even undertaking the serious risks to my life and liberties, since political hooliganism can go to any length to eliminate
me, at any time, in revenge or retaliations to my actions relating to the issues pertaining to the Italian law.
11. Therefore,
hereby please take notice under Section 80 of the Civil Procedure Code to admit following true facts relating to the Citizenship
