New Delhi: Congress leader Rahul Gandhi Sunday changed his bio on Twitter where he described himself as a “Dis’Qualified MP”. The former MP got disqualified from the Lok Sabh after being held guilty in a defamation case by Surat court.
He also wrote “Dis’Qualified MP” on his the official Wayanad Twitter account.
Gandhi was disqualified from the Lok Sabha Friday, a day after a court in Gujarat’s Surat convicted him in a 2019 defamation case. The disqualification will prevent Gandhi (52), a four-time MP, from contesting elections for eight years unless a higher court stays the conviction.
Even though Gandhi is yet to file a review petition, the Congress has said it would fight it legally and politically.
