NEW DELHI: The Allahabad high court on Friday rejected a petition seeking FIR registration against Lok Sabha leader of opposition Rahul Gandhi over an alleged controversial “fighting the Indian state” remark.Justice Vikram D Chauhan passed the order while hearing a petition filed by Simran Gupta, who had challenged a Sambhal court’s earlier decision rejecting her request to direct police to lodge an FIR against Congress leader Rahul Gandhi.The petitioner alleged that during the inauguration of the All India Congress Committee office in 2025, Rahul had said, “we are now fighting the BJP, the RSS, and the Indian State itself.”According to the plea, the remark hurt public sentiments and amounted to a seditious and anti-national statement intended to destabilise the country.
