The Supreme Court will today hear a plea to debar Congress president Rahul Gandhi from contesting Lok Sabha polls on account of his alleged British nationality. 

On May 1, the home ministry sent Rahul Gandhi a notice seeking a response to charges that he held British citizenship. 

The ministry of home affairs sought Gandhi's response over a complaint filed by BJP's Subramanian Swamy in 2017.

When the issue cropped up, Rahul's sister Priyanka said, "The whole of India knows that Rahul Gandhi is an Indian. People have seen him being born and grow up in India. Kya bakwaas hai yeh?"
