Rahul Gandhi's Lok Sabha membership restored; Opposition bullish ahead of no-confidence motion
Senior Congress leader Rahul Gandhi's Lok Sabha membership has been restored today and he is now free to attend Parliament sessions. The Lok Sabha Secretariat has issued an order to review his suspension. This restoration of his membership comes 3 days after the Supreme Court stayed his conviction in a criminal defamation case over his 2019 remarks on the Modi surname. That decision of the apex court bench which heard Gandhi’s plea challenging the Gujarat High Court order declining to stay the conviction, had paved the way for his return to Lok Sabha where he represented Wayanad in Kerala. He was disqualified from the House in March this year following the conviction. Now that a stay has been granted, his disqualification stands revoked. #Rahulgandhimembership #Rahulgandhiloksabha #Rahulgandhi ~HT.178~PR.153~ED.155~
