Rahul Gandhi, a former congress MP and leader of the Congress, has become the target of yet another defamation case. This time for his remarks made in January of this year on his Bharat Jodo Yatra against the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS).
On the complaint of an RSS worker named Kamal Bhadauria, the case was filed by attorney Arun Bhadauria in a courthouse in Haridwar, Uttarakhand.
What was the statement?
Rahul Gandhi referred to RSS members as the “21st-century Kauravas” when speaking at a street corner gathering in Ambala, Haryana, on January 9, 2023, following the Bharat Jodo Yatra.
“Who were the Kauravas? I will first tell you about the 21st-century Kauravas. They wear khakhi half-pants, carry lathi in hand and hold shakhas; India’s 2-3 billionaires are standing with the Kauravas,” said Rahul, alluding to the RSS.
On April 12, the case will be heard in court.
Rahul Gandhi, the leader of the Congress, was given a two-year jail sentence in a defamation case last month for saying “all thieves have the Modi surname.”
A Surat court found him guilty of violating Indian Penal Code Section 504 (Intentional insult with intent to cause disruption of the peace) (IPC).
