Ram Jethmalani has quit as Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal's counsel in the 10-crore defamation case filed by Union Finance Minister Arun Jaitley. This comes as the Delhi High Court on Wednesday will hear the plea over the use of an 'objectionable word' by Jethmalani.
Jethmalani has demanded Kejriwal to pay him Rs two crore as legal fees, reported the Times of India. Moreover, the lawyer accused the Delhi CM of having used even more derogatory language against Jaitley.
A notice was issued to Kejriwal to respond on why defamation proceedings should not be initiated against him.
