Rahul Gandhi’s convoy involved in accident: Four cars collide with ambulance on UP’s Purvanchal Expressway — Video

At least four vehicles in Congress MP Rahul Gandhi's convoy collided with an ambulance on Monday on the Lucknow-Sultanpur highway in Sultanpur district, Uttar Pradesh. The Congress leader was reported to be unharmed, according to PTI news agency. Gandhi was in Sultanpur to appear before a Special MP/MLA court in connection with a 2018 defamation case.

He was acquitted by the court on Monday for his 2018 remarks against then BJP president Amit Shah, made during a rally in Bengaluru ahead of the 2018 Karnataka Assembly elections. The defamation complaint was filed by Vijay Mishra, a local BJP politician and former chairman of the District Cooperative Bank in Sultanpur, on August 4, 2018.

The court had initially fixed October 13 for the verdict, which was later rescheduled to October 26.
