Rahul Gandhi is an accused in the National Herald case in which BJP leader Subramanian Swamy is the complainant.
A Delhi court will today give an order on the application of Rahul Gandhi seeking a no-objection certificate for issuance of an "ordinary passport" after he surrendered his diplomatic passport upon his disqualification as an MP.
Rahul Gandhi is an accused in the National Herald case in which BJP leader Subramanian Swamy is the complainant.
Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate (ACMM) Vaibhav Mehta on Friday morning reserved the order after hearing the arguments, during which Mr Swamy opposed the application, saying it was "devoid of any merit" and that the passport should be issued only for one year and renewed every year.
"It is special case. The passport should not be issued for ten years. It seems wrong," he told the court.
