The Indian Youth Congress on Thursday held a symbolic protest near Shastri Bhawan here against the verdict of a Surat court sentencing Rahul Gandhi to two years of jail in a defamation case.
The demonstration was in solidarity with Rahul Gandhi, said general secretary in-charge Delhi, Coco Padhi.
Many activists of the Indian Youth Congress (IYC) proceeded towards Shastri Bhawan from the Youth Congress office and organised ‘Satyagraha’ in a peaceful manner.
The protesters were carrying placards and raising slogans against Prime Minister Narendra Modi in the presence of police personnel.
IYC national president Srinivas B V said every worker of the Youth Congress is standing shoulder to shoulder with Gandhi in this “battle of truth”.
