Rahul to return as MP, can fight polls as Supreme court stays his conviction

IndiaTimes Friday, 4 August 2023

The court's order would restore him as the MP from Wayanad.

Rahul Gandhi hit back at PM Modi for the allegations levelled against him by the Prime Minister. “Mr Narendra Modi, Do Adani-Ambani fill you in a 'tempo' and give you money? Is this your personal experience? Do one thing- send CBI, ED to them. Get a thorough investigation done, don't panic,” Rahul Gandhi Said. Earlier, the Congress also responded to PM Modi's “Shehzada getting black money from Adani-Ambani?" jibe at Rahul Gandhi, saying the Wayanad MP has finally forced the Prime Minister to expose corruption by making serious allegations against industrialists Gautam Adani and Mukesh Ambani. #RahulGandhi #RahulGandhiHitsBack #RahulGandhiAdaniAmbaniJibe #PMModiinTelangana #PMModiTelangana #Telangana #TelanganaNews #PMModiSpeech #AdaniAmbani #MukeshAmbani #GautamAdani #CongressvsBJP #LokSabhaElections2024 #Elections2024 #LSElections24 #Oneindia ~HT.178~PR.152~ED.194~GR.124~
