The Central Government's determination on voluntary acquisition of Pakistani citizenship is quasi-judicial and ordinarily requires a reasonable opportunity to be heard, yet procedural defects do not invalidate the decision where the applicant's own affidavit admits obtaining a Pakistani passport and the conclusive presumption under the Rules is thereby attracted. On those facts, no material prejudice was shown and the challenge to deportation failed. en-us Mon, 10 Apr 1967 00:00:00 +0530 Wed, 28 Nov 2018 10:47:33 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=277185 Section 9(2) of the Citizenship Act, 1955 and Rule 30 of the Citizenship Rules, 1956 do not wholly oust civil court jurisdiction in a suit seeking to restrain deportation; the court may entertain the suit but must refer the foreign-citizenship question to the Central Government.
