BJP claimed that people had seen through "Kejriwal's attempts to divide the anti-incumbency vote" and his party was losing support.
Goel, in the legal notice sent Sep 23, said Kejriwal made defamatory statements deliberately and with mala fide intention through his pre-recorded telephone messages, radio broadcasts and televised debates. He sought an unconditional apology from Kejriwal and Rs.1 crore as damages towards harassment and mental agony.
Kejriwal, in his telephone messages and radio broadcasts, had targeted both Congress and BJP.
Goel cited Kejriwal's telephone messages and radio broadcasts in his legal notice.
