Law Minister Kiren Rijiju Has This To Say On Rahul Gandhi’s Conviction In Defamation Case

As Rahul Gandhi’s conviction triggered a political slugfest, Law Minister Kiren Rijiju took a fresh dig at him saying one cannot blame all Gandhi surnames just because the Congress leader “insulted” Indian democracy, its armed forces and country’s institutions.

Rahul Gandhi’s conviction in a 2019 criminal defamation case by a Surat court has been slammed by opposition parties, including the AAP, which rallied behind the former Congress chief and accused the ruling party of “hatching a conspiracy to eliminate” its political opponents by prosecuting them.

“We can’t blame all Gandhi surnames just because Rahul Gandhi insulted Indian democracy, our Armed forces & India’s Institutions. Rahul Gandhi made very derogatory remark and disgraced an entire OBC Community. Shockingly, some Congress leaders are trying to defend it,” Rijiju said in a tweet.
