Allahabad HC reserves order in plea over filing of FIR against Rahul Gandhi

Prayagraj (UP), Apr 8 The Allahabad High Court on Wednesday reserved its order in a petition challenging a Sambhal Court's order rejecting an application seeking the registration of an FIR against Congress leader Rahul Gandhi over his alleged controversial remarks in 2025.
