Another defamation case on Gandhi:
In March 2022, Gandhi received a notice from the Gujrat high Court in another defamation case filed by state Bhartiya Janata Party minister in April 2019 over a generalized remark the Congress leader made over the surname ‘Modi’. Speaking at a rally in Karnataka ahead of the 2019 general elections, Gandhi reportedly asked “Nirav Modi, Lalit Modi, Narendra Modi…..How come they all have “Modi” as the common surname ? How come they all have ‘Modi’ as the common surname?.”
Last year, Gandhi appeared before the Surat court and pleaded not guilty. As per media reports, a public interest litigation (PIL) was also filed in the Jharkhand high Court for his “derogatory remarks”. However, the HC granted him relief in the case.
