SC dismisses defamation case against Rahul Gandhi over Savarkar comments
On Friday, the Supreme Court set aside the criminal defamation complaint and the magistrate's order to summon Rahul Gandhi regarding his statements about Vinayak Damodar Savarkar. The case, initiated by lawyer Nripendra Pandey, accused Gandhi of inciting enmity and causing public disorder. Gandhi had previously claimed that Savarkar worked with the British and received a pension from them.
