Aam Admi Party (AAP) senior leader and national spokesperson Sanjay Singh will appear in ludhiana court on Saturday in a case pertaining to defamation filed by Punjab Revenue minister Bikram Singh Majithia for calling him a ‘Drug lord’. Sanjay Singh, who appeared in the court of Chief Judicial Magistrate (CJM) Bikramdeep Singh in ludhiana on February 8, was granted bail after he furnished a bond of Rs. 50,000.
Majithia had filed a criminal defamation suit against Sanjay Singh on January 16. Majithia however did not appear in the court on February 8.
Sanjay said no court summons had been served on him, but he came to know about the hearing through the media and appeared himself as a mark of respect for the judicial system.
Sanjay had rather asked Majithia to file an FIR against him in any police station of Punjab to lodge him in jail.
