Actor Imran Khan has been directed to leave India by October 28 following a notice issued by Mumbai's Foreigners Regional Registration Office (FRRO). The action follows his participation in a protest demanding the resignation of Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar. Maharashtra Minister of State for Home Yogesh Kadam says the notice was issued under the Foreigners Act and follows due legal process. The opposition has criticised the move, arguing that someone should not face deportation for protesting. The action follows a complaint by BJP leader Kirit Somaiya, who alleged violations of OCI rules. Imran Khan is likely to challenge the order in court.
