A day after Congress leader Rahul Gandhi was disqualified as a Lok Sabha member following his conviction in a 2019 defamation case, party workers took to the streets in numerous states on Saturday to stage protests. A court in Gujarat's Surat convicted Gandhi on Thursday and sentenced him to a two-year jail term over his remarks on PM Narendra Modi's surname in 2019.
