NEW DELHI: The Leader of the Opposition (LoP) in the Lok Sabha, Rahul Gandhi, appeared before the MP/MLA court in a defamation case on Tuesday and was subsequently granted bail. However, a controversy broke out over his alleged photo-op session as lawyers made a beeline to take a picture with the Congress MP apparently inside the court premises.
The BJP took strong exception to the incident and spokesperson Ajay Alok lashed out at the Congress MP and said that this shows his utter disregard for the judiciary.
“This man has no shame. He is a habitual offender and will continue to do so. After getting bail, he was posing for photo ops, that’s how little shame he has left, " the BJP spokesperson said in a terse reply, responding to viral pictures of LoP Gandhi's photo with lawyers on social media.
