Fraud Alert : Open Letter to Cambridge University

Rahul Gandhi's  Affidavit




Lies and Forgery :
Open Letter to Trinity College ,
Cambridge University
With due respect we  wish to bring forward  to
your kind attention  about a candidate name Mr.Rahul Gandhi ,running for
Parliamentary Elections in India who claims to have done MPhil[Development
Economics] from Trinity College , Cambridge University  
. Earlier  he was projected by his party and the Indian 
media  as , Masters in Economics from Harvard University  (
Appendix 1 ) . According to  Harvard University records , though he
studied at Harvard ,didn't completed his Program .
After public protests and an open letter to Harvard University President ,highlighting
gross abuse  of University name the Indian   media stopped
reporting  this lie .
In his affidavit  http://upgov.nic.in/election/Affidavits/21/RahulGandhi/RahulGandhi.HTML 
to Election Commission of India ,Mr.Rahul Gandhi stated  that he is
MPhil[Development Economics] Trinity College , Cambridge University .  http://upgov.nic.in/election/Affidavits/21/RahulGandhi/RahulGandhi_SC4.jpg

Interesting observations in the Affidavit
His qualification in affidavit jumped from Senior secondary
to M.Phil. bypassing BA and MA. It surprised many in India because we 
never never seen people write like this - Senior Secondary - M.phil 
Nowhere in the world it is possible to do M.Phil.(Master of Philosophy) after
senior secondary school. In UK, in some colleges it is possible to do M.Phil
after B.A. (honours) with good ranks. Normally, most UK colleges/universities
offer M.Phil. after MA/MSc degree. From affidavit, it looks completely forge
We learnt from numerous sources that he didn't completed
his degree . Indians regard  Cambridge
University  as a Sacred Temple of
Education and fountain of Knowledge , many students from this esteemed
University contributed to the development of India and have occupied high
positions . India is a largest Democracy in the world , unscrupulous persons who
couldn't able to complete their degree are using "Cambridge" as a
Marketing tool to appeal to Voters in the run for  Public 
office , by doing so they are not only doing a great disservice to the
Society but also lowering the dignity and respect of Cambridge 
University .


This is not the first time such lies are spread to Indian
Public , please allow me to quote 2 instances .
  (Appendix 2)

We request you to check the records of Mr.Rahul Gandhi and
issue a statement as early as possible in the interest of  public .

The Harvard-educated Rahul currently owns a computer
consultancy firm in New Delhi. His candidacy, ironically, runs counter to a
ruling by his mother that two members of the same family should not be given
tickets to the same election! In any case, the Congress hopes that the 'politics
of pedigree' will see them through. However, it must be said that Rahul does not
enjoy the advantages that his father and grandmother had when they entered the
fray.

worked for an investment bank in London  will

mother, the Italian-born Sonia, who leads the opposition Congress party.

APPENDIX 2

1.Late Indian Prime Minister Mr.Rajive Gandhi claimed that
he was qualified  Mechanical
Engineer  from the Cambridge
University UK.  Subsequent enquiry
with University officials revealed that "Mr. Gandhi was in residence as an
undergraduate at Cambridge for three years, from 1962 until 1965; his subject of
study was Mechanical Sciences. During his time here he did not pass any
University examinations, and so he left Cambridge without qualifying for a
degree " . His name was removed from the Children's Encyclopedia by The
World Book Inc. of Chicago . But it was too late , he was able to successfully
dupe the Indian Public .


2. Ms.Sonia Gandhi wife of Rajive Gandhi 
has bluffed Indian Parliament in the Who”s Who wherein she states (p.
291) that she was educated in Cambridge University and received Diploma in
English . 
It was corrected after 5 years when a gentlemen pointed out this .
