\"UP:<\/div>\n
Sultanpur<\/a> (UP<\/a>): Hearing in a 2018 defamation case<\/a> against Congress leader Rahul Gandhi<\/a> over his alleged objectionable remark targeting Union Home Minister Amit Shah<\/a> was on Monday postponed by an MP-MLA court here to May 2. According to Gandhi’s counsel Kashi Prasad Shukla, the hearing was scheduled for Monday but could not be held as a judge was yet to be assigned to the court.
The MP-MLA court fixed May 2 as the next date of hearing in the matter, he added. <\/p>\n

The defamation complaint against Gandhi was filed by BJP<\/a> leader Vijay Mishra<\/a> six years ago. <\/p>\n

Last December, the court issued a warrant against Rahul Gandhi. Subsequently, Gandhi halted his Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra in Amethi on February 20, appeared in the court and was granted bail. <\/p>\n

The complaint was filed here on August 4, 2018, against Rahul Gandhi for his alleged objectionable comments against Shah made at a press conference in Bengaluru in May of that year during the Karnataka elections. <\/p>\n

The complainant referred to Gandhi’s comment that the BJP claims to believe in honest and clean politics but has a party president who is an “accused” in a murder case. Shah was BJP president when Gandhi made the comment. About four years before Gandhi’s remark, a special CBI court in Mumbai discharged Shah in a 2005 fake encounter case when he was a minister of state for home in Gujarat.<\/p><\/div>\n
