Rahul Gandhi defamation case: Complainant gets final chance to argue, next hearing on Sept 21
Sultanpur (UP), Sep 16 (PTI) A court here on Wednesday gave the complainant in a defamation case against Congress leader Rahul Gandhi a final opportunity to present arguments, fixing September 21 for the next hearing with a warning against further delay.
The case relates to alleged objectionable remarks made by Gandhi against the then Union home minister Amit Shah in Bengaluru in 2018.
The hearing before the MP/MLA special court was deferred after Santosh Kumar Pandey, appearing for complainant and local BJP politician Vijay Mishra, sought more time to prepare his arguments, citing his engagement in a religious event.
