A Haryana court has directed Delhi's former Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal to appear before it on February 17 in connection with a complaint filed by the Haryana government. The complaint follows Kejriwal's controversial statements regarding water supplied to Delhi.
Haryana government's legal action
The Haryana government has raised concerns over Kejriwal's remarks, which they believe to be misleading and harmful. As a result, legal proceedings have been initiated, with the court now formally asking the Delhi leader to appear for questioning.
Case stems from alleged Yamuna 'water poisoned' claim
The case is tied to Kejriwal's claims that the water supplied to Delhi was poisoned, a statement that sparked strong reactions from Haryana officials. The government has strongly objected to such allegations, leading to the court’s involvement in the matter.
