Former Pakistani prime minister Imran Khan has asked authorities to provide evidence supporting the notice that seeks to cancel his Overseas Citizenship of India (OCI) card, while asserting he did not breach police barricades at the site.
Imran Khan, the former prime minister of Pakistan, has formally requested that the Indian authorities disclose the evidence underpinning a notice aimed at revoking his Overseas Citizenship of India (OCI) card. The notice, which has drawn attention in both countries, alleges grounds for cancellation but has not yet been accompanied by publicly available documentation.
Speaking to reporters, Khan emphasized that no protest was taking place when he arrived at the location in question, and he maintained that he did not cross any police‑set barricades to enter the area. His statement seeks to counter any implication that he breached security protocols or participated in unlawful activity.
As of now, the relevant Indian agencies have not released the detailed justification for the cancellation notice, and the matter remains under review. Khan’s demand for transparency reflects his broader effort to contest the decision and protect his OCI status.
