A Delhi court on March 3 directed Congress leader Sandeep Dikshit to share documents related to his defamation suit with Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leaders Atishi and Sanjay Singh.
Additional chief judicial magistrate Paras Dalal also directed the complainant to supply a copy of the pen drive containing the alleged defamatory statements to the respondents.
The lawsuit alleged that the two AAP leaders were "deliberately causing harm to Dikshit's goodwill." The court on January 16 issued a notice to Atishi and Singh based on the complaint.
The case would come up on March 12.
What라이브 바카라 The Case About?
The defamation suit claims that former chief minister Atishi and AAP's Rajya Sabha MP Sanjay Singh, during a press conference on December 26 last year, accused Dikshit of taking crores of rupees from the BJP, and the Congress of colluding with the saffron party to defeat the AAP.
Atishi singled out Congress candidates like Sandeep Dikshit and Farhad Suri, alleging "covert support" from the BJP.
"BJP is funding the candidates linked to Congress, our sources have informed us. We would like to ask Congress why would it speak BJP's tunes while staying in a collaboration with the Aam Aadmi Party? If Congress is not working to help win the BJP, then it should take action against Ajay Maken who called Kejriwal an anti-national," she added
