A single-judge bench of Justice Vikram D Chauhan pronounced the verdict.
The court had reserved its order on October 16 after hearing arguments in the matter.
The petition was filed by Nageshwar Mishra and others under Section 528 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita (BNSS) and sought directions for registration of an FIR against Gandhi over his remarks on the Sikh community.
Advocate Satyendra Kumar Tripathi appeared on behalf of the petitioners, while Additional Advocate General Manish Goyal represented the state government.
Earlier the Varanasi court dismissed the petition, and thereafter petitioner Nageshwar Mishra and others have challenged the decision in the Allahabad High Court.
