(MENAFN- Nam News Network) NEW DELHI, Jul 7 (NNN-PTI) – Rahul Gandhi, one of the key opposition leaders in India, today failed to get relief, in a defamation case, from the High Court of the western state of Gujarat.

A former president of the main opposition party, Indian National Congress (INC), Gandhi had appealed before the Gujarat High Court to review a decision by a lower court in Surat, which suspended his membership of the parliament's lower house, Lok Sabha, and gave him a two-year jail sentence.

The defamation case was filed against Gandhi for his alleged remarks during a rally for the 2019 parliamentary elections.

The court noted that, at least ten similar criminal cases were still pending, before different courts, against Rahul Gandhi.– NNN-PTI
