Congress Chief Mallikarjun Kharge said that a meeting has been called at the party office over the disqualification of Rahul Gandhi as Lok Sabha MP. The meeting will be held at 5 pm today.
The notification came on a day when Opposition leaders led by the Congress had held a protest rally against Gandhi’s conviction, marching to Rashtrapati Bhavan with posters saying, ‘Democracy is in Danger’.
Rahul Gandhi's disqualification notice comes a day after a Surat court found Rahul Gandhi guilty of defamation for a 2019 campaign trail remark on Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s surname.
