Indore, Jun 13 Congress leader Digvijaya Singh on Saturday welcomed Indore Mayor Pushyamitra Bhargav's move to seek action against him for 'criminal contempt' in the Supreme Court, saying it would provide him an opportunity to place his arguments before the court.


According to a statement issued by Singh's office, he even spoke to Bhargav over the phone and thanked him for writing to Solicitor General Tushar Mehta regarding the matter.


In his letter, the mayor flagged a video where Singh allegedly used derogatory language for the Supreme Court.


In the video, Singh commented on the returning officer rejecting the nomination of Congress candidate Meenakshi Natarajan in the Rajya Sabha election from Madha Pradesh earlier this week.


Singh said in his statement that Bhargav's letter to the Solicitor General would allow him to present his arguments and facts before the country's highest court.
