NEW DELHI: The Patiala House Court will hear the defamation case filed against Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal by Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) MP Ramesh Bidhuri on August 20.

The court on July 8 granted bail to Kejriwal on a personal bond of Rs 10, 000.

The court was hearing a defamation complaint filed by Bidhuri, who said Kejriwal made defamatory statements against him, terming him a criminal, in an interview to a private channel on July 17 last year.

Bidhuri told the court that Kejriwal’s statements had maligned him.

Bidhuri claimed that no case was pending against him.
