New Delhi: The Gujarat High Court has dismissed Rahul Gandhi's review petition seeking a stay on his conviction in a criminal defamation case over his Modi surname remark.
To show their resentment against the High Court verdict, a large number of Congressmen took to streets in support of their leader and raised slogans 'Rahul Gandhi Zindabad' at the Party headquarters.
Earlier in May this year, Gujarat HC reserved its order on Rahul Gandhi's plea seeking a stay on his conviction in the 2019 'Modi surname' defamation case.
Rahul Gandhi had moved the Gujarat High Court on April 25 challenging the Surat sessions court order which declined to stay his conviction in the criminal defamation case. (with agency inputs)
