    India -- explicitly -- prohibits its citizens to hold any other citizenship. If you are a New Zealand citizen over the age of 18, you are not an Indian citizen anymore. There is no human being on this planet over the age of 18 who holds Indian citizenship and another one. If you have an Indian passport and still use it, despite the fact that it's invalid, then you are guilty of document fraud.

    I don't know what the Saudis do to such people, and, frankly, knowing that they stone women who are guilty of adultery, I wouldn't want to find out.

    My advice: surrender your Indian passport faster than a speeding bullet to the nearest Indian embassy or silently renounce your New Zealand citizenship at the NZ embassy in Mumbai, which is the only place you can do this.
