Police case will not deter me: Srinagar MP Ruhullah

SRINAGAR: (Mar 4) Fire brand Lok Sabha member from Srinagar, Aga Syed Ruhullah Mehdi, on Wednesday said he would not be deterred from speaking truth by the police case registered against him.

"The people of Srinagar did not elect their MP to recite government-approved condolences. They elected him to speak truth. That mandate does not expire with an FIR," Mehdi said in a post on X.

On Tuesday, a case was filed against Mehdi under BNS sections 197(1)(d) and 353(1)(b) at Cyber Police Station, Srinagar, for "circulation of misleading content."
