Actor Imran Khan Ordered to Leave India Following Protest Participation

Mumbai Police have directed actor Imran Khan, a U.S. citizen and Overseas Citizen of India (OCI) cardholder, to leave India by October 28. The Foreigners Regional Registration Office issued the notice following a complaint by BJP leader Kirit Somaiya, who alleged that Khan violated the Immigration and Foreigners Act, 2025, by participating in a protest against Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar.

The notice cites Sections 7(2)(c) and 29 of the Act, which govern the conduct of foreign nationals. Although the OCI scheme grants certain privileges to individuals of Indian origin, it does not confer Indian citizenship or political rights, such as the right to participate in domestic demonstrations.

Editor's note: Matches the notice details, legal sections and OCI rights explanation without adding unfounded claims.
