Trinamool Congress MP Saket Gokhale is determined to persist in his legal fight following the Delhi High Court's ruling to seize 75% of his salary. This decision comes as a consequence of a defamation suit brought by former diplomat Lakshmi Puri.

Gokhale, known for his allegiance to Mamata Banerjee and the Trinamool Congress, stated he would fight even harder after the court's decision. He issued a brief statement, underscoring his resolve to challenge the verdict in higher court.

According to court details, Gokhale's salary will be attached until he deposits Rs 50 lakh, the amount ordered by the court in relation to defamation allegations he made concerning Puri's financial transactions involving a Geneva apartment.
