Congress MP Rahul Gandhi has approached the Bombay High Court to request the dismissal of a defamation complaint filed against him. This complaint is related to his statements that allegedly linked the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) to the 2017 murder of journalist Gauri Lankesh, stated a report in PTI.
In his petition, Rahul Gandhi argued that his case should not be combined with the one filed against Communist Party of India (Marxist) leader Sitaram Yechury. This is because the statements in question were made on different occasions, and the two leaders belong to distinct political parties with different or even opposing ideologies.
