The Bombay High Court reserved judgment on a plea by Rahul Gandhi seeking to quash a defamation case over remarks on Narendra Modi. Justice N.R. Borkar heard the matter arising from a 2019 magistrate order.
The Supreme Court extended the stay on defamation proceedings against Congress leader Shashi Tharoor. This decision came after the complainant’s lawyer requested additional time to submit a counter-affidavit. The case remains pending until further developments. The extension delays further legal action for now.
