DIN - Director Identification Number
[quote] April 16, 2014 To: The Secretary, Ministry of Corporate Affairs, Shastri Bhavan, New Delhi. Dear Mr. Secretary, I am enclosing a printed download from your Ministry's website wherein it is disclosed that Ms. Priyanka Gandhi Vadra had applied and obtained three DINs numbers. This is a criminal contravention and violation of Section 155 of the Companies Act read with Section 159 thereof. Section 155 permits one and only one DIN per person. Section 159 states as follows: "159. If any individual or director of a company, contravenes any of the provisions of Section 152, Section 155 and Section 156, such individual or director of the company shall be punishable with imprisonment for a term which may extend to six months or with fine which may extend to fifty thousand rupees and where the contravention is a continuing one, with a further fine which may extend to five hundred rupees for every day after the first during which the contravention continues." Kindly initiate necessary criminal prosecution against Ms Priyanka Gandhi Vadra treating this letter of mine as a complaint under Section 200 of the Cr.P.C., with intimation to me so that I may assist the proceedings as per law.
