Digital Desk: Jignesh Mevani, Gujarat Congress working president
and MLA, and 18 others were sentenced to six months in jail for rioting in

agitation in this case.
Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate P N Goswami suspended
Mevani's and others' sentences until October 17 to allow them to file appeals.

after Dr B R Ambedkar.
The First Information Report was filed under sections 143
(unlawful assembly) and 147 (rioting) of the Indian Penal Code, as well as
sections of the Gujarat Police Act.
During the course of the trial, one of the defendants died.

He was later appointed working president of the party's
Gujarat unit.
