Jaitley v. Kejriwal:Day 2 – When a CM endorses them, they become grave and serious matter [Read Full Q & A]

In what was described as a “fiery” question-answer session, Ram Jethmalani continued his cross examination of Arun Jaitley today before Registrar Amit Kumar of the Delhi High Court.

After yesterday, Jethmalani seemed to have come prepared to go all-out against Jaitley ensuring that a minimum number of his questions were disallowed. Only two of the nineteen questions posed by Jethmalani were rejected by the Registrar today.

Jethmalani raised questions regarding Jaitley’s “reputation” and questioned on several tweets posted by Ms. Madhu Kishwar, ABP Media and Sitaram Yetchuri and others in relation to this matter.

Jethmalani asked Jaitely, it was Ms Madhu Kishwar who made a statement on Twitter that you (Jaitley), his wife and daughter are linked to fake companies; but you did not sue her, but decided to sue the Defendant No. 1 (Arvind Kejriwal).

This was Jaitley’s response:

Jethmalani also questioned Jaitley on his alleged “animosity” with the former captain of the Indian cricket team Bishan Singh Bedi. Bedi was appointed as the Chief Coach of the DDCA for three years when Jaitley was heading the cricket body.

The cross examination is now expected to continue on May 15 or May 17.
