New Delhi: Congress Vice President Rahul Gandhi today told the Supreme Court that he is ready to face trial in a defamation case over the controversial comment that RSS men killed Mahatma Gandhi.
The Supreme Court refused to give exemption to Rahul gandhi from personal appearance before Bhiwandi court in Maharashtra in the case.
In 2014, during a rally in Bhiwandi, Thane, Rahul Gandhi had blamed the RSS in assassination of Mahatma Gandhi on January 30, 1948.
Here's what Twitter had to say about it
Too many lawyers in MMS cabinet had messed up UPA 2 - same bunch is advising #RahulGandhi inconsistently on the #RSS matter.

#RahulGandhi repetitive monologs reg Gandhiji killing by rss is rotten foul smelling nauseating senseless statement but not defamatory.
