Jaitley has sought Rs.10 crore in damages following the AAP leaders' statements on alleged Delhi and District Cricket Association irregularities.
 
Jaitley also filed a criminal defamation complaint in a Patiala House court, saying that the statements of these leaders would cause "irreversible damage" to his reputation. 
 
Jaitley headed the DDCA for 13 years till 2013. 
 
Kejriwal has demanded that Jaitley must resign or be removed as union minister to enable free and fair probe into the DDCA issue.
