A Delhi court has directed Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia and Swaraj India president Yogendra Yadav to appear before it “without any failure” in a criminal defamation complaint filed in 2013 by an election ticket aspirant.
Delhi Police on Sunday refuted media reports that Communist Party of India (CPI) leader Sitaram Yechury, psephologist Yogendra Yadav and economist Jayati Ghosh were arraigned as accused in the supplementary chargesheet filed by it in the case related to the northeast Delhi violence.
A Rouse Avenue court here on Wednesday put a stay on the non-bailable warrant (NBW) issued against Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, Deputy CM Manish Sisodia and Swaraj India president Yogendra Yadav in connection with a defamation case.
Delhi High Court rejected Yogendra Yadav-led Swaraj India’s plea for allotting a common symbol to its candidates in the upcoming municipal elections.
The court didn’t have the power to allot symbols to unrecognised but registered political parties, adding that this power was vested with the Election Commission of India (ECI).
