Indian National Congress leader Pawan Khera has approached the Gauhati High Court seeking bail in a defamation case. This legal move comes after the Supreme Court of India stayed an order from the Telangana High Court that had granted him a week's transit anticipatory bail. The case is proceeding in Assam, and Khera's legal team is now seeking relief from the high court in that state. The development highlights ongoing legal challenges faced by opposition figures in India.
