In another development to the National Herald case, Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader Subramanian Swamy submitted a fresh list of witnesses during a hearing at the Patiala House Court on Saturday.

The next hearing in this matter will be held on 15 May.

Earlier on 25 March, all the accused involved in the case, including Congress president Sonia Gandhi and party vice-president Rahul Gandhi, had filed their reply in the Delhi court and opposed Swamy's plea seeking summoning of witnesses.

The court had previously also dismissed Swamy's plea, seeking documents related to the case against Sonia and Rahul along with other accused.

Swamy had filed an application in 2012, accusing Sonia, Rahul and others associated with the Congress of conspiring to cheat in a land deal.

An application in this matter was filed by Swamy in 2012, accusing Sonia, Rahul and others associated with the Congress in the case.

He had alleged that the Congress had granted an interest-free loan of Rs.90.25 crore to the AJL, established by Jawaharlal Nehru, which was either not repaid or repaid in case.

In August 2016, the local court had issued notice to Sonia and Rahul and five other accused in the case.
