In his complaint, Jain accused Swaraj of making defamatory remarks against him during a news channel interview on October 5, 2023, which was viewed by millions. Jain claimed that Swaraj made “false claims” about the recovery of Rs 3 crore in cash, 1.8 kg of gold, and 133 gold coins from his residence.

He alleged that these statements were made to damage his reputation, falsely portraying him as “corrupt and fraud” for political gain.
