Gujarat MLA Jignesh Mevani has been granted bail by a court in Barpeta, Assam in a case of alleged assault on a policewoman.

Mevani was arrested in the alleged assault case on April 25 just after he was granted bail by another court in Assam in a case over tweets on Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

Mevani was on Tuesday remanded to five days police custody by a local court in Assam's Barpeta district in connection with a case lodged for allegedly assaulting a policewoman. The Court also rejected his bail petition.

Mevani had been granted bail by a Kokrajhar Court in the case related to a tweet against Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

Meanwhile, following his bail Mevani said that his arrest was "vendetta politics by the PMO (Prime Minister's Office)".
