The Gujarat High Court has dismissed appeals by AAP leaders Arvind Kejriwal and Sanjay Singh seeking separate trials in a defamation case filed by Gujarat University. The case concerns "sarcastic and derogatory" statements made by the leaders in April 2023 regarding Prime Minister Narendra Modi's educational degree. The court found that both leaders were engaged in a single transaction with a common purpose, upholding lower court decisions that rejected their pleas for separate proceedings. The leaders had argued their accusations were distinct and occurred on different dates.
