Arvind Kejriwal’s Controversial Bail: A Political Drama Unfolds
Arvind Kejriwal, the Chief Minister of Delhi and leader of the Aam Aadmi Party, was embroiled in a legal battle over an alleged liquor scam. The Delhi High Court recently suspended a trial court order that had granted Kejriwal bail, just a day after the initial decision.
Kejriwal’s arrest in March, amidst the upcoming general elections, raised eyebrows as he faced corruption charges related to an alleged liquor scam tied to excise policies. Despite ongoing hearings, Kejriwal continues to serve as the acting Chief Minister of Delhi.
The Enforcement Directorate challenged his bail hours after it was granted, citing lack of direct evidence linking him to the alleged crime. Kejriwal’s arrest was seen by some as a political move orchestrated by the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party. The opposition leader vehemently denies the accusations, claiming persecution.
Kejriwal’s bail saga highlights the intricate web of Indian politics, where power struggles and corruption allegations often take center stage.
