Delhi CM Kejriwal replies to Union Finance Minister Arun Jaitley's defamation filing
"The plaintiff's claim that he enjoys and in fact possesses high public character is a totally frivolous and unsustainable claim," said Kejrwial, "No injury of any kind has been caused to the plaintiff's reputation which he claims."
Kejriwal added that despite BJP's success in the Lok Sabha elections, Jaitley lost by a margin of more than one lakh votes.
"Indian democracy has never accepted his claim of public character," was Kejriwal's reply.
Arun Jaitley had filed the defamation case against Kejriwal and five other AAP leaders.
He had accused them of unfairly targeting him in the DDCA scam, seeking damages of Rs 10 crore.
