Rahul Gandhi moves High Court against Varanasi court order on alleged objectionable remarks

The matter is listed before a single bench of justice Sameer Jain, who will hear his criminal revision petition on September 1.

The original application was filed by Nageshwar Mishra of Varanasi before the court of the additional chief judicial magistrate, Varanasi.

After hearing the matter on November 28, 2024, the ACJM court rejected the plea, observing that the speech in question was delivered in America and therefore fell outside its jurisdiction.
