Delhi CM Gets Relief

During the proceedings, the Supreme Court declined the plea from senior advocate Abhishek Manu Singhvi, representing Arvind Kejriwal, for interim bail extending until the announcement of results on June 4.

Instead, the court granted interim bail to Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal until June 1, instructing him to surrender on June 2, 2024.

This decision came after the court rejected Singhvi's request for a longer bail period. Kejriwal, who was arrested by the Enforcement Directorate on March 21 in connection with the alleged Delhi liquor excise policy scam, is required to surrender to the prison authorities.
