SC stays proceedings in defamation case against Delhi CM Atishi and Kejriwal

Delhi BJP leader Rajiv Babbar filed the case over remarks of AAP leaders on the alleged deletion of names of 30 lakh voters belonging to a particular community from the electoral rolls. A bench of Justices Hrishikesh Roy and SVN Bhatti stayed the proceedings in the trial court yesterday. Atishi and Kejriwal had challenged the Delhi HC order, which refused to quash the case, saying the alleged remark prima facie lowered the reputation of the BJP.
