  New Delhi: Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal has admitted his mistake in the defamation case related to BJP IT cell. The national convener of the Aam Aadmi Party told the Supreme Court that he had made a mistake by retweeting the allegedly offensive video. After this, the Supreme Court has stayed the hearing of this matter in the lower court till March 11. Kejriwal has approached the Supreme Court after the High Court dismissed the petition to quash the case. Senior lawyer Abhishek Singhvi, appearing for Kejriwal, said, 'I can only say that I have made a mistake by retweeting.' Without issuing notice on Kejriwal's plea challenging the Delhi High Court order, a bench of Justices Sanjeev Khanna and Dipankar Dutta asked the complainant if he wanted to close the case after the Chief Minister's apology. The matter is of 2018. The Delhi Chief Minister retweeted a video by YouTuber Dhruv Rathi on social media platform X (then Twitter). Vikas Sankritian, founder of the social media page 'I Support Narendra Modi', filed a defamation case against Kejriwal. He claimed that Rathi had made defamatory allegations against him in a video and that the Delhi Chief Minister had shared the video without checking the facts. Vikas said that this has hurt his image. The lower court had issued summons to Kejriwal considering it a prima facie defamation. Kejriwal went to the sessions court against the summons but his demand was rejected. Then he filed a petition in the Delhi High Court. In the first week of February, the Chief Minister of Delhi was also disappointed by the High Court. Justice Swarankant Sharma had said that retweeting offensive content is an offense under Section 499 of the IPC.
