Gujarat University Registrar Piyush Patel filed the defamation complaint against Arvind Kejriwal and Sanjay Singh over their comments on Prime Minister Narendra Modi's education degree.
Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal and Aam Aadmi Party MP Sanjay Singh have filed petitions at a sessions court in Gujarat, challenging a lower court's summons on July 26 in a defamation case filed by the Gujarat University. The judge has issued notices to the University and the state government and the matter will be heard on August 5.
University Registrar Piyush Patel had filed the defamation complaint against Mr Kejriwal and Mr Singh over their allegedly "sarcastic" and "derogatory" comments regarding Prime Minister Narendra Modi's education degree.
The Gujarat University has argued that the statements by Mr Kejriwal and Mr Singh would give the impression that the university issues fake and bogus degrees.
