Digital Desk: On Thursday, a sessions court in Ahmedabad rejected pleas made by Arvind Kejriwal, the chief minister of Delhi, and Sanjay Singh, an Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) member and colleague, who were challenging summons sent to them for their appearance in a criminal defamation case.
Due to their "sarcastic" and "derogatory" remarks against Prime Minister Narendra Modi's academic degrees, the AAP leaders are facing a criminal defamation case in Ahmedabad brought by Gujarat University.
The AAP leaders' lawyers argued at the hearing on September 6 and 8 that Gujarat University could not bring a defamation claim in this case since the summons order of the trial court was incorrect. They contended that there was no evidence to support the two leaders' accusations.
Judge J. M. Brahmbhatt had set September 14 as the date for the order after hearing arguments from all sides.
