OCI

The Centre reiterated to Delhi High Court that foreign Overseas Citizens of India (OCI) cardholders cannot avail its benefits, if divorced. However, a Belgian woman divorced to an Indian man challenged section 7D(f) which talks about foregoing of OCI status on divorce. Surprisingly, the lady became a beneficiary of OCI in 2017 even after getting divorced in 2011. Currently, the ministry has given her an adequate time to explain her stand.
