Kumar Vishwas wrote to Arun Jaitley tendering apology, sought withdrawal of the civil defamation case filed by the minister against him. Jaitley's lawyer says,"we have accepted it."

The Finance Minister had filed two defamation cases of Rs 10 crore against Kejriwal and the other AAP leaders, who had alleged financial irregularities in the Delhi and District Cricket Association when Jaitley was its president.

The case against Kejriwal, Sanjay Singh, Raghav Chadha and Ashutosh has already been settled after they tendered the apology to Jaitley.

The second civil suit was filed against the AAP chief after his ex-lawyer Ram Jethmalani used an objectionable word against Jaitley during the hearing of the first case in 2017.
