Gujarat Police registered an FIR against Aam Aadmi Party’s Gujarat unit President Gopal Italia for defaming BJP leaders and also inducing people to commit an offence against the state or public tranquillity.
A day after Hardik Patel lashed out at the Congress party, AAP president Gopal Italia said his party was open to welcoming Hardik Patel if he was unhappy in the Congress.
The controversial leader said that he is being ignored in the party and added that his position in the party is that of a newly married groom who has been forced to undergo 'nasbandi' (sterilisation).
Hardik Patel petitioned SC to reverse the Gujarat HC ruling, demanding that the conviction be stayed so that he may contest in 2019 Lok Sabha elections.
