Petition to disqualify Hema Malini

INDORE, MAY 1. After a local court dismissed their petition against the Bollywood actor and Bharatiya Janata Party candidate from the Rajasthan's Bikaner constituency, Dharmendra, some Congress activists here have sent a petition to the President, A.P. J. Abdul Kalam, demanding the revocation of actress Hema Malini's Rajya Sabha membership for allegedly providing ``incorrect'' information about her marital status.

In a complaint to the President sent on Friday in the form of a petition, copies of which were made available to the press here today, the Madhya Pradesh Congress Committee's minority cell vice-chairman, Akthar Beg, and the city Congress unit vice-president, K.K. Mishra, alleged that Ms. Hema Malini in her papers to the Rajya Sabha had named Deol Dharmendra as her husband, while they had not yet made ``public'' their marital status.

The complainants alleged that Ms. Hema Malini, by providing ``false and baseless'' information about her marital status, had committed a ``fraud." — PTI
