Guwahati, Assam Chief Minister Himanta Vishwa Sharma on Friday warned that he would file a defamation case against Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal if he made corruption allegations against him outside the Assembly.

Sarma called Kejriwal a coward

Kejriwal reportedly said in the Delhi Assembly that there were cases against Sarma. On the other hand, Sarma told reporters at a program, “Is there any FIR or case against me anywhere in the country?” I wanted to sue him (Kejriwal) but like a coward he spoke inside the assembly.”

The Chief Minister of Assam said that a person should not speak against anyone in the assembly as the accused is not present there to present his case. He said, “Kejriwal should come here on April 2 and say that I am corrupt. Next day I will file a defamation suit against him as I have done against Manish Sisodia.’

Sisodia was also sued for defamation

Sarma had filed a defamation case against Sisodia, the then Deputy Chief Minister of Delhi, in the court of Chief Judicial Magistrate, Kamrup in August last year. The suit was filed for making certain allegations against Sharma at a press conference in New Delhi.
