Hindustan Times  

New Delhi, Delhi Chief Minister Atishi, accused in a defamation case, on Monday informed a court that the threshold in political defamation cases was high as electoral parties were subjects of public discourse. Threshold high in political defamation: Delhi CM Atishi to court Senior advocate Ramesh Gupta, representing the CM, made the submission before Special Judge Vishal Gogne while arguing against the summon issued to her by a magisterial court on a BJP leader's complaint. BJP spokesperson Kapoor accused Atishi and former Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal of defaming him through a purported claim that several A MLAs were approached by the saffron party with cash to bring down the state government. Accusing Atishi of making false claims about poaching attempts on the A MLAs, Kapoor moved the court with a criminal defamation complaint and argued she had failed to furnish evidence to support her claim.
