The Prime Minister was addressing an International Academic Conference organized by the Indian Law Institute at Vigyan Bhavan.
Santosh Kumar Suman had filed a petition against the Prime Minister in the cash-for-vote scandal in 2008, when BJP MPs deposited Rs 1 crore cash in front of Lok Sabha Speaker Somnath Chatterjee alleging that they were being bribed.
Suman had also filed a petition in the former Army Chief Gen V k Singh's case. The court had dismissed both his petitions.
