Rahul Gandhi's Defamation Case Hearing Deferred Again Due to Health Camp

The defamation case against Rahul Gandhi was postponed to October 1 because a health camp organized by the bar council halted court proceedings. The case, filed by BJP politician Vijay Mishra, involves Gandhi's alleged objectionable comments during the 2018 Karnataka polls concerning then-BJP president Amit Shah. Gandhi claims the case is for cheap publicity.

A defamation case hearing against Rahul Gandhi in Uttar Pradesh was delayed due to a health camp by the bar council, rescheduling it to October 1.

Filed by BJP's Vijay Mishra for Gandhi's comments on Amit Shah during the 2018 Karnataka polls, the case alleges defamation with Gandhi refuting the claims as publicity stunt.

Gandhi, who had been granted bail, has been summoned multiple times, but hearings were repeatedly postponed due to various reasons including court adjournments and plaintiff's ill health.
