Defamation case | Rahul Gandhi to move Supreme Court very soon, says Congress

The Congress on Wednesday said it will move the Supreme Court “very soon” to seek a stay on former party chief Rahul Gandhi’s conviction by a Surat court in the Modi surname case.

“It will be very soon. It is under preparation and in the nearest future, you will come to know of that,” Congress spokesperson Abhishek Singhvi, who had also argued for Mr. Gandhi in the Gujarat High Court last week, said.

On July 7, the Gujarat High Court refused to stay Mr. Gandhi’s conviction in the case that led to the former Congress chief’s disqualification from the Lok Sabha.
