When the matter came up for hearing on Friday before Justice Prathiba M Singh, Advocate Swathi Sukumar argued on behalf of Singh that her client, being an OCI cardholder, enjoys all rights guaranteed under the Constitution of India, except for certain rights as specified in Section 7B(2) of the Citizenship Act.
Sukumar submitted that even the government is not saying that Singh’s OCI card has been cancelled.
“As per Section 7D of the Act, OCI cards cannot be cancelled without giving the cardholder a reasonable opportunity to be heard. They are saying I have been blacklisted but no reasons have been communicated to him. My OCI card is still valid,” she submitted.
