Celina Jaitly reacts as Vikrant Jaitly refuses to communicate and chooses to consult wife Charul Jaitly first; court dismisses plea Celina Jaitly has responded to the Delhi High Court’s dismissal of her petition seeking consular access, legal assistance, and communication with her brother, Major (Retd.) Vikrant Jaitly, who is detained in the United Arab Emirates. The court rejected her plea after being informed that Vikrant Jaitly declined to communicate with his sister and preferred to handle legal matters only after consulting his wife, Charul Jaitly. In a detailed social media post, Celina expressed gratitude to the court and the Government of India, stating that she had approached the court out of concern for her brother’s safety and well-being. She emphasized her sense of responsibility toward Vikrant, noting that with their parents no longer present, she felt it was her duty to ensure his protection and support. “He is in a foreign nation, and as his sister, especially in the absence of our parents, I felt it was my duty to ensure he was not left without protection or support,” she wrote. Celina also revealed that she had pursued judicial intervention despite facing personal challenges, including ongoing matrimonial proceedings. She highlighted her commitment to her brother’s welfare, stating, “My concern for my brother’s welfare compelled me to seek judicial intervention.” She thanked the Indian government for informing her that officials had been in contact with Vikrant, noting that the Ministry of External Affairs had provided multiple legal accesses to him and was working to ensure proper legal representation and his well-being. The court’s decision was based on information that Vikrant Jaitly had already been granted consular access but had declined legal assistance.#delhi_high_court #celina_jaitly #vikrant_jaitly #charul_jaitly #matiti_group
