SC stays trial against Rahul Gandhi in defamation case

The Supreme Court has temporarily halted the criminal defamation trial against Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, who is facing charges for allegedly making defamatory remarks about Union Home Minister Amit Shah.

The case, filed by BJP worker Naveen Jha in 2019, stems from a public speech Gandhi made during the 2019 Lok Sabha elections, where he allegedly referred to Shah as a "murderer."

A bench comprising Justices Vikram Nath and Sandeep Mehta issued a notice to the Jharkhand government and Jha, seeking their response to Gandhi’s appeal. The Congress leader had previously challenged the Jharkhand High Court’s ruling, which had dismissed his petition to quash the case against him in a trial court.
