Rahul Gandhi No Longer An MP After Jail Sentence In 'Modi Surname' Case

The Congress called it a "conspiracy" to silence the leader, who has been dogged in his attacks on PM Modi and has been the de facto head of the main opposition party for nearly a decade.

I read the news about the his conviction in the defamation case.

Really? Why would modi jee need to resort to such petty revenge tactics?
And 2 year jail term for defamation? I thought there was just a fine for that stuff.

Seems india is more stupid then PDM pakistanis

Jail time is unlikely imo, probably will find a loophole to stay out, bail maybe. Let's wait and see.

No, our chuty!as win hands down.

He already got bail, but Conviction means disqualification. Rahul Gandhi will have to trade something for a reduction in conviction and to fight in 2024.

Might be a scandal that Rajiv needed.

There is criminal defamation law in India. Here he defamed not a person but a community which comes under criminal law. He will get bail of course, but Conviction for 2 years in jail term means disqualification even after bail.

 

[agamdilawari]

That's the Indian law. If any member of assembly, state or center, get convicted with the sentence of 2 years or more, he immediately stands disqualified from his seat and fresh elections are announce from his/her constituency. Happened before with Lalu Yadav as well when he was convicted in fodder scam.

Nah, that's the pilot script that was given to the sepoys by their hindutva overlords to do a trial run in Pakistan before rolling it in their own backyard.

I understand but what's the need for such tactics. Only reason I can think of is Rahul is starting to look like a possible threat. So he needs to be cut to size.

I just happened to stumble onto this post in an old thread. Was thinking the same thing.

Let us understand one thing. The words used do not change the thrashing the Chinese got. Once again.

The BJP is clearly rattled by the traction Rahul's walk across the nation is getting.

Even you guys will notice that the word pappu has magically disappeared from the public space.

India is not an easy place to understand for outsiders. Though you guys come closest.

 

[iamnobody]

This is scripted drama.

Real threat to BJP is not from Congress but regional parties.

BJP wants Congress to regain some of it's lost popularity. It wants an incompetent cocaine addict like Rahul Gandhi to lead it.

Modi and Gandhis are helping each other.

Langda Khan was a lot smarter than people noticed.
he knew what his country was doing, the direction it is headed and he was more than happy to see it go that way, and even supported it

Yeah, he's a smart guy. I would say sometimes came of as smarter than @-=virus=- too

Say, @-=virus=- , you referred to him as doc. There was a dude named padamchen, who ended his posts with "Cheers, Doc".
It's clear this isn't landga khan's first ID. Who is the doc?

 

[Paitoo]

This is the moment for the Congress. Rahul Gandhi needs to become a martyr, appoint someone as the PM candidate, continue campaigning, win the elections and rule like his mom did with Manmohan. Two terms guaranteed like last time. The nostalgia of it all brings me tears of joy.
