Rahul Gandhi LIVE | Rahul Gandhi Addresses Media After SC Stays His Conviction In Defamation Case

The Supreme Court today stayed the conviction of Congress Leader Rahul Gandhi in the criminal defamation case against him over his 'Modi surname' remark, while maintaining that his remarks are not in good taste, especially for a person in public life.
The trial judge has awarded the maximum sentence of two years in the case, the top court observed, pointing out that it would not have attracted disqualification if the sentence was a day lesser.

Rahul Gandhi had also in April told a sessions court in Surat his conviction by a magistrate's court in the 2019 defamation case was erroneous, patently perverse, and he was sentenced in a manner so as to attract disqualification as a Member of Parliament. He had said he was treated harshly by the trial court, which was "overwhelmingly influenced" by his status as an MP.
