Overview

  • Arvind Kejriwal, Manish Sisodia, former Speaker Ram Niwas Goel and former Deputy Speaker Rakhi Birla did not appear before the Committee of Privileges on November 13.
  • The panel issued fresh notices and set November 20 for the four to record their versions in the case.
  • Members examined archival maps, background files and other material as the inquiry moves into evidence recording.
  • Speaker Vijender Gupta has cited a 1912 plan and National Archives records to argue the room was a tiffin room or lift shaft rather than a gallows.
  • Kejriwal and Sisodia have challenged the summons in the Delhi High Court, which said their plea appeared not maintainable, while AAP called the move politically motivated.
