GUPTA`S CITIZENSHIP

Cape Town - A day after under fire Home Affairs Minister Malusi gave a confusing explanation over the citizenship status of the Gupta family, the department’s director-general Mkuseli Apleni was left to clear up the mess.

At hastily arranged press conference, Apleni confirmed that Atul and Rajesh Gupta were indeed naturalised South Africa citizens but their sibling Ajay was refused because he had not renounced his Indian citizenship. Ajay Gupta only holds a permanent residency of South Africa.

Apleni said Atul Gupta’s citizenship was never a subject of an internal probe by the department of home affairs because he had been granted citizenship in 2002, having arrived in South Africa in 1994. Rajesh “Tony” Gupta was naturalised in July 2006.

My question is that, is it really a good thing that the Gupta family are South African citizens after what they have put us through in our country?. After the massive scandals they have done, citizenship is the last thing that they should be granted in South Africa.

    I don`t see why they should be refused citizenship, what is done is done, we have to forget about the past and move on

    Home Affairs will be failing the economy of South Africa if it approves the citizenship for the Guptas because this family showed clearly last year that their intention is to make the Rand depreciation against other currencies.

      In the presence of Guptas in our country, South Africa will not have any future of becoming a developed country.

    There is nothing wrong in Guptas citizenship. They have been in South Africa since years. They don't need any illegal means to have country's citizenship.

    I think they should not be part of our country, they have brought so much trouble.
