    PM Modi's qualifications: Arrest warrant against Kejriwal over tweet
  • An Assam court has issued an arrest warrant for Arvind Kejriwal, after he failed to appear in a defamation case concerning a tweet on PM Narendra Modi's educational qualification.

    Karbi Anglong Autonomous Council member Surjo Rongphar had filed the case.

    Though Kejriwal's lawyer argued he was busy with Delhi civic election preparations, the court observed he hadn't appeared in January either.
