Gandhi appeared before the court around 10.55 am.

"Rahul Gandhi ji appeared before the court as per the direction of the Jharkhand High Court. He had sought bail. Conditional bail has been granted. We will now take the process ahead,” Gandhi's counsel Pranav Daripa said.

The lawyer said the case pertained to defamation and was registered in 2018.
