The court is scheduled to deliver its verdict tomorrow in an old case involving Rahul Gandhi. The question now arises: will this decision bring relief to Rahul Gandhi or will it increase his troubles? A defamation case involving Congress leader and Leader of the Opposition in the Lok Sabha, Rahul Gandhi, is scheduled for Monday, October 26, 2026. The verdict will be delivered by the special MP-MLA court in Sultanpur. This case is not recent, but dates back to 2018, during the Karnataka Assembly election campaign. At that time, Rahul Gandhi made allegedly offensive remarks against then-BJP National President Amit Shah, prompting a defamation suit. The court will hear the case tomorrow, and everyone will be watching the court’s decision.
The 2018 Controversy
This case is not recent, but an old one. This case began on August 4, 2018, when BJP leader and former District Cooperative Bank President Vijay Mishra filed a defamation complaint and lawsuit against Rahul Gandhi. The complainant alleged that Rahul Gandhi made derogatory remarks against Home Minister Amit Shah during his election campaign in Bengaluru, when Amit Shah was the BJP’s national president at the time. The case was filed based on this allegation. The complainant called this statement defamatory and demanded action against Rahul Gandhi. The court will now deliver its verdict in this case tomorrow. Whether the verdict will bring relief or increase Rahul’s difficulties will become clear only after tomorrow’s hearing.
Arguments from both sides completed
The hearing of this case is scheduled to take place in the special MP-MLA court in Sultanpur, and the hearing has already concluded, with both parties presenting their arguments. The court of Special Magistrate Shubham Verma has heard the arguments of both parties, and after hearing both sides, the verdict has been set for October 26th, meaning the court will deliver its final decision on this matter tomorrow. According to Santosh Kumar Pandey, the complainant’s lawyer, the defense has admitted everything in its written arguments. The complainant argues that the statements have been proven to be defamatory, and therefore, action should be taken on the defamation charge.
Meanwhile, Rahul Gandhi’s lawyer, Kashi Prasad Shukla, stated that the statements were presented differently. This means that both parties have their own arguments, and everyone is watching the court’s decision after hearing both sides.
According to media reports, Rahul Gandhi’s verdict in this case is about to be announced, and all eyes are now on this decision. He is scheduled to arrive in Sultanpur tomorrow, Monday, around 12 noon, meaning he will appear in court tomorrow. The outcome will be known tomorrow.
