Delhi Excise policy case: Supreme Court to hear Arvind Kejriwal's interim bail petition today
The Supreme Court is set to pass an order on Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal's interim bail in a money laundering case. Kejriwal was arrested by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) in connection with alleged irregularities in the Delhi excise policy. The court hinted at granting interim bail for Kejriwal to campaign for the Lok Sabha elections but stated he wouldn't be allowed to perform official duties if granted bail. The ED opposed his bail, questioning exceptions for politicians. Kejriwal's legal team objected to the ED's affidavit, denouncing it as a disregard of legal procedures.
