Rahul going to Surat 'to augment insult thrown at OBC community' through Modi surname remark: BJP

BJP national spokesperson Sambit Patra on Monday lashed out at Rahul Gandhi over moving Surat court for challenging his two-year jail term in a defamation case, and said that the Congress leader is going with his family and some CMs "with pomp and show" to "repeat and add to the insult" of the OBC community. Patra alleged that the group of Congress leaders including the chief ministers of some Congress-ruled states will create "mayhem" in the name of appealing against Rahul's conviction.
