"What Setback?": Hardik Patel Says Court Decision More Dangerous For BJP
Hardik Patel, the fiery leader of the Patidar community in Gujarat who has made it a mission to hurt the BJP hardest in its strongest state, on Tuesday said that the Supreme Court order widely seen as a setback for his plans to contest the Lok Sabha polls could spell more trouble for the ruling party. The top court refused an urgent hearing in the Supreme Court on his request to hold his conviction so he can contest this month's polls. "What's the urgency now," the top court asked, pointing out that the conviction dated to 2015.
