The BJP lawmaker Naranbhai Kachhadia had also moved a bail application which was also granted by the high court.
The Gujarat High Court has stayed a local court's verdict that sentenced Naranbhai Kachhadia, the BJP lawmaker from Amreli, to three years in prison for allegedly assaulting a government doctor.
Justice RH Shukla stayed the order which convicted and sentenced the MP after he moved the High Court against the Sessions Court order.
Mr Kachhadia had also moved a bail application which was also granted by the high court.
On Wednesday, the court had sentenced him to three years imprisonment for assaulting a doctor at a government hospital on January 1, 2013.
The court had, however, suspended the sentence for a month for Mr Kachhadia and four other convicts to facilitate them to approach the high court against the conviction.
Mr Kachhadia might face disqualification as an MP for the sentence under Representation of People Act (RPA), according to which any MP, MLA or MLC, who is awarded a minimum of two years of imprisonment loses membership of the house with immediate effect.
A doctor at Amreli Civil Hospital, Bhimjibhai Dabhi, was attacked by Mr Kachhadia and others when he refused to attend to a patient who was a BJP worker's relative.
The patient, when asked by Mr Dabhi to wait as he was looking after another patient, complained to Mr Kachhadia who came to the hospital and allegedly thrashed Mr Dabhi.
