Delhi court quashes summons to CM Atishi in defamation case

A Delhi court on Tuesday (January 28, 2025) quashed the summons issued to Chief Minister Atishi in a defamation case filed by a BJP leader.

Special Judge Vishal Gogne passed the order on an appeal filed by the AAP leader against an order of a Magisterial Court, which issued summons to Ms. Atishi on the complaint of Praveen Shankar Kapoor.

The Judge observed the submission of Ms. Atishi’s counsel that Mr. Kapoor was not defamed by her as the alleged defamatory statement was against the BJP and not an individual.
