Rahul Gandhi served notice to vacate government-allotted bungalow

The former Congress MP was disqualified after getting convicted in a criminal defamation case by the Surat court and was sentenced to two years.

New Delhi: Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, who was disqualified from the Lok Sabha, now gets a notice from the Lok Sabha Housing Committee to vacate the government-allotted bungalow. The former Congress MP was disqualified after getting convicted in a criminal defamation case by the Surat court and was sentenced to two years.

Congress MP Pramod Tiwari said that the notice shows BJP’s hatred towards Rahul Gandhi. He told that for a period of 30 days after the notice is served, one can continue to stay in the same house and even after the time period, one can continue to stay by paying rent at market rates. He added that Rahul Gandhi comes under the ‘Z’ plus security category.

Meanwhile, Congress MPs wore black outfits to the Parliament today and party workers protested across India against the disqualification of Rahul Gandhi and over the Adani issue. Congress MPs are demanding a JPC to preside over the Adani issue and probe the alleged relationship between PM Modi and Gautam Adani.

The opposition parties are looking it at as an assault on Indian democracy and Congress has also decided to fight back.

Rahul Gandhi called ‘all Modis’ to be thieves in a statement where he was making his remarks on the connection between Neerav Modi, Lalit Modi and PM Narendra Modi. Surat court found him guilty of defamation and pronounced the maximum punishment of two years, due to which his membership from Lok Sabha was was quashed.
