Dhanbad (J’KHAND): A local court on Tuesday issued a warrant against Union Minister Narendra Singh Tomar in a defamation case filed by a Congress leader for his alleged objectionable remarks against Rahul Gandhi in 2016.
Chief Judicial Magistrate R K Singh issued the bailable warrant against the Minister as the latter failed to appear before the court on Tuesday, as directed by it on May 1.
Tomar’s lawyer Narendra Trivedi said he had filed a petition under CrPC Section 205 to exempt the Minister from appearance, but the court issued the warrant. (AGENCIES)
