Rahul Gandhi’s parliament membership was snatched
Significantly, a defamation case was also filed against Rahul Gandhi in the Surat court of Gujarat regarding the same matter, in which he has been convicted. It was only after this punishment that his Parliament membership was canceled from the Wayanad seat of Kerala. Ranchi resident Pradeep Modi has filed a defamation case against Rahul Gandhi for his comment on Modi surname. Under this, hearing is going on in the special court of MP-MLA. Pradeep Modi alleged in his application that on April 23, 2019, during the Lok Sabha elections, when Rahul Gandhi came to Ranchi to address an election rally, he had made comments on people with Modi surname, which hurt the sentiments of the entire society.
