HC Rejects Interim Protection Plea Of Rahul Gandhi
In a major setback for the Indian National Congress (INC,) the Gujarat High Court (HC) refused the plea of interim protection to Rahul Gandhi in the 'Modi Surname' 2019 defamation case. With the rejection, the court reserved the verdict on his plea for a stay on his conviction in the 2019 case which cost him his Parliament membership of Rahul Gandhi. Notably, a lower court convicted Gandhi in the case.
