Delhi court summons BJP MLA Vijender Gupta in defamation case

On Monday, a court here subpoenaed BJP MLA Vijender Gupta in a criminal lawsuit filed by the Delhi Cabinet Minister and AAP leader Kailash Gahlot for slandering him in the procurement of 1,000 low-floor buses by the Delhi Transport Company.

The other chief metropolitan magistrate, Ravindra Kumar Pandey, pointed out that there is “preliminary evidence” sufficient to summon Gupta as the defendant. “The court put forward a deliberated view based on the oral statement, the documents that the complainant placed in the evidence before the subpoena and proved the record, and the testimony of the complainant’s witness accusing Vijender Gupta of initially committing a punishable crime under Section 499, IPC’s 500 and 501 (both related to defamation),” the judge said. Gupta was summoned on November 16.

In his complaint, Delhi Transport Minister Garrott claimed that Gupta “intentionally and for malicious purposes” slandered him and tarnished his reputation to gain political miles. He claimed that Gupta had made “defamation, libel, mischief, false and indecent allegations” both verbally and in writing. The complaint stated that the defendant’s “defamation and defamation” allegations were to prevent “the Delhi government’s ambitious plan to provide significant relief to Delhi residents”.

“The defendant made vulgar, false and false accusations against the complainant in order to teach the people of Delhi a lesson and get them to vote for the Aam Aadmi party,” the plea stated. It claims that Gupta has been questioning the minister’s integrity in buying low-floor buses on Twitter, despite a clean bargaining chip from a high-power committee.

It said that the Delhi government had tendered the bus, and after due process, it was awarded Tata, but various allegations were made. If convicted, Gupta could be sentenced to up to two years in prison.
