The defamation suit alleges that Congress leaders, including Gandhi, had falsely claimed that the bank was involved in a "scam" to swap Rs 750 crore in scrapped notes with valid currency within five days of demonetisation in 2016.

On his arrival in Gujarat, Rahul Gandhi was welcomed by Gujarat Congress leaders upon his arrival at Ahmedabad Airport.
On the other hand, during his first visit to Amethi after losing the Lok Sabha seat, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi attributed his defeat to local leaders staying away from the people and assured he would not abandon the constituency.
"I will not leave Amethi. It is my home and family," former state Youth Congress chief Nadeem Ashraf Jayasi quoted Gandhi as saying at a meeting. "The development of Amethi will not be hampered. I am the MP from Wayanad but my ties with Amethi are three decades old. I will fight for Amethi in Delhi," Gandhi told party workers. Before the 2019 defeat, Gandhi represented Amethi since the 2004 general polls, reports agencies.
