AHMEDABAD: Frequent battles among members of a family that migrated from Sindh to Ahmedabad have taken the type of an Indo-Pak war, with one
set of family members accusing the others of being Pakistani nationals
While his grievance to the Election Commission resulted in the cancellation of the elector photo identity cards (EPIC) of his 2 cousin bros,
the duo has now approached the Gujarat high court seeking redressal.Justice Biren Vaishnav has looked for a reply from Gujarats primary
electoral officer (CEO) on the cancellation of the voter ID cards and posted further hearing on February 7
Murli (48) and Anil Parpiyani (44 ), residents of Kubernagar, approached the high court after their uncle and his boy alleged they were not
Indian people and had obtained citizen IDs fraudulently, causing its cancellation.The Parpiyanis supporter N L Ramnani stated Murli and Anil
