In short

BJP MP Anurag Thakur attacked Rahul Gandhi at a press conference over Gandhi’s comments on the Chief Election Commissioner. He said people should bring evidence, not just make allegations, and said the President and Supreme Court had already dealt with Gandhi’s evidence claims.

It keeps the political fight in the news, but the reporting does not show any new court order or factual finding. The exact evidence Gandhi referred to is not stated.
