The bench of Justice Dinesh Kumar Sharma on Wednesday, after noting down the submissions, decided to stay the proceedings going before the Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate in Delhi’s Rouse Avenue Court. The court also requested Manish Sisodia’s response to the plea moved by Parvesh Sahib Singh Verma.
Parvesh Sahib Singh Verma is a Member of Parliament from the West Delhi Lok Sabha constituency and a Bharatiya Janata Party leader. He is currently serving his second term as MP for West Delhi.
Manish Sisodia, the deputy chief minister, filed a defamation case in 2019 against BJP MP Manoj Tiwari, MP Hans Raj Hans, MP Parvesh Verma, MLA Manjinder Singh Sirsa, MLA Vijender Gupta, and BJP spokesperson Harish Khurana for allegedly making false allegations about his (Manish Sisodia’s) involvement in corruption involving 2000 crore rupees in the construction of classrooms for Delhi government schools.
According to the court, the accused were summoned to court on November 28, 2019.
Prior to this, the trial court proceedings against Manjinder Singh Sirsa, Hans Raj Hans, and Harish Khurana had been stayed by the same court.
In the defamation case, Sisodia stated that all of the allegations made by these BJP leaders collectively and individually were false, defamatory, and derogatory with the intent to harm and damage his reputation and goodwill.
