BJP: Court Refusal Not Clean Chit for Gandhis in National Herald Case

• BJP states Delhi court's refusal to take cognisance of ED's money laundering charge is not a "clean chit" for Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi.
• BJP spokesperson Gaurav Bhatia clarified the dismissal was procedural, not on merit, and the court did not examine innocence or legality of transactions.
• The primary criminal case, stemming from Subramanian Swamy's complaint alleging cheating and criminal conspiracy, is still pending trial in Delhi Court.
• Congress claimed the court order exposed "politically motivated prosecution" and deemed ED's proceedings "illegal and mala fide."
• ED will file a fresh charge sheet against Gandhis, taking cognisance of a Delhi Police EoW FIR filed on October 3, 2025, strengthening the PMLA case.

Why It Matters: BJP asserts Gandhis remain accused in National Herald case despite court's procedural ED order.
