MEA questions Devyani Khobragade's trustworthiness and integrity

Government has told the Delhi High Court that Devyani Khobragade, an IFS officer and former Deputy Consul-General of India in New York, obtained US and Indian passports for her two daughters in violation of law and without informing the external affairs ministry, which raises serious questions about her trustworthiness and integrity. Khobragade, on behalf of her daughters, had contended that the government revoked the passports without issuing them show cause notice or hearing them. The court had, thereafter, stayed the 30 December 2014 order by which the government had revoked the passports.
