Delhi CM Atishi defends against defamation lawsuit, arguing high threshold for political speech.

Delhi Chief Minister Atishi, facing a defamation lawsuit, argues in court that the threshold for political defamation is high due to the nature of public discourse involving political parties. Her lawyer, Ramesh Gupta, claims the complaint by BJP leader Praveen Shankar Kapoor does not hold as Atishi's statement was directed at the BJP, not an individual. The court will hear Kapoor's arguments on December 16.
