CNN Central News & Network–ITDC India Epress/ITDC News Bhopal: A Delhi court has granted a stay on the summons issued against Chief Minister Atishi Marlena in a defamation case filed against her. The case stems from remarks allegedly made by Atishi during a public statement, which the complainant claimed were defamatory and damaging to their reputation.
The court, while reviewing the petition, decided to temporarily halt the proceedings and summons until further notice, citing the need for a more detailed examination of the case’s merit and context. This decision comes as a relief to Atishi and her legal team, who have been actively contesting the allegations.
Atishi, known for her outspoken nature and reformative policies, had earlier stated that the claims made against her were politically motivated. She emphasized her commitment to transparency and public welfare, asserting that she would continue to focus on her responsibilities as the Chief Minister of Delhi.
The defamation case has attracted significant public attention, with opinions divided on the issue. While some see it as a misuse of legal processes to silence dissent, others believe it should be thoroughly investigated. The court is expected to hear further arguments from both parties in the coming weeks.
