The Supreme Court on Friday stayed Congress leader Rahul Gandhi's conviction in the criminal defamation case over his "Modi surname" remark. The top court noted that the Surat trial court gave no reason while sentencing Gandhi to two years. The stay effectively revived his status as Lok Sabha MP, which was stripped away in March due to his conviction in the case.
