New Delhi, Jul 15 (PTI) Congress leader Rahul Gandhi moved the Supreme Court on Saturday challenging the Gujarat High Court’s July 7 order which dismissed his plea seeking a stay on his conviction in a defamation case over his “Modi surname” remark.
The appeal has been filed by Gandhi through advocate on record Prasanna S.
Gandhi was disqualified as a Member of Parliament on March 24, 2023 after a Gujarat court convicted him and sentenced him to a two-year imprisonment on charges of criminal defamation for comments he made about the Modi surname.
