High court chides Kejriwal lawyers

NEW DELHI:The Delhi high court on Tuesday said that chief minister Arvind Kejriwal was “not being reasonable” in the civil defamation case filed against him by Union minister Arun Jaitley, and cautioned his lawyers over their conduct.

“You (Kejriwal) are not being reasonable. Your conduct is not reasonable. It cannot be like this. We cannot have proceedings go on in this manner. Otherwise tomorrow we will have fist fight in court. Whole system is on the brink of collapse,” Justice Manmohan told Kejriwal’s lawyer. HTC
