Ahmedabad: A complaint
has been filed in a court here against Janata Party chief
Subramanian Swamy for making derogatory comments against Congress
general secretary Rahul Gandhi, a lawyer said Tuesday.
Complainant Prakash Gurjar, general secretary of state Youth
Congress, said that he filed the complaint as Swamy's comments
amounted to provoking a class of people amongst those who believed
in the Congress.
The complaint is based on an interview of Swamy published in a
newspaper Dec 27 last year.
Gurjar's advocate B.M. Gupta said: "A complaint against Swamy has
been filed in a metropolitan court."
The complaint has been filed under penal provisions related to
defamation and promoting enmity between different groups on
grounds of religion.
The court has posted the matter for hearing Jan 18.
