NDTV
"This is a fight to save democracy, against 'Mitrakal'," Rahul Gandhi tweeted
Congress's Rahul Gandhi, after getting bail from a sessions court in Gujarat today in the defamation case over his remarks on the surname of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, said "truth is my weapon" in another Gandhian tweet.
"This is a fight to save democracy, against 'Mitrakal'. In this struggle, truth is my weapon, and truth is my refuge!" read a rough translation of his post in Hindi.
The 'Mitrakal' dig is one he has been taking regularly at the central government, accusing it of working to benefit its "crony capitalist friends". The last occasion was the budget, which he had dubbed "Mitr Kaal budget".
Mr Gandhi got bail today and his two-year jail sentence was put on hold till the court has taken a call on his appeal challenging the order of the Surat magistrate. The next hearing is on April 13.
